A daughters Tribute handed on

For MUM
(A daughters Tribute)


I remember well the days when I was young,
And when I had those treasured moments, just with Mum
Her hand would touch and stroke my hair
And we could just sit and be quiet there.

At times like this we could just quietly talk,
Just simple things, without much thought
Sharing together precious personal things
With that sort of peace that each one brings.

To a moment of quietness, which only true love brings,
Between mother and child and now I cling
To memories of too few times, we spent in ways together,
That brought to us such simple pleasure.

The years have gone and now just like my Mum
A family I have raised, and I have too become
Mum to children who have children of their of their own
Sharing with them, such rare delight s and so the years have flown.

So life goes on , as it should, we find fond instances of love,
Enjoyed throughout life’s rush and bustle and we can thank the Lord above
For loving moments shared, and each in turn, whisper softly.
I LOVE You Mum.
