This is a poem of love written in dedication to my Mother

 

Mom's Lessons

 

 

 

I learned from her to be strong

 

To work hard or nothing would be gained

 

Hold my head up be a lady with grace

 

Mom always had a joke to tell

 

A smile upon her face

 

Be kind to others she would say

 

What goes around comes back around

 

Will get you in the end

 

Live life with dignity

 

Always keep your pride

 

Strive to be the best you can be

 

At whatever job you do

 

Always be honest and true

 

You have to live by the choices you make

 

In everything you do!

 

Never tell a lie as they cannot be remembered

 

After a day or two!

 

Will someday come back on you!

 

I am my Mothers daughter

 

Learned my lessons well

 

She now holds a place in Heaven

 

Still keeping an eye on me

 

I live my life in such a way

 

I know she was proud of me

 

Mom taught me all the lessons

 

I passed on to children of mine

 

Say prayers at night thank the Lord above

 

For the many blessings each and everyday

 

Always remember to help a stranger along the way

 

I am my Mothers daughter

 

I was so proud to be!

 

When my time is over here

 

I know she will take my hand

 

Will be together again someday in Heavens promised land

 

Till then I will remember special memories

 

All the years we shared my Mother and me

 

Remembering especially all of Mom's lessons that she told me

 

In memory of Enid Seabrooke
