How Grateful I Would Be To Have Just One More Day

I miss my mom so much and writing poetry when I'm down gets me through the emptiness I feel since she went to Heaven.

 

How Grateful I Would Be To Have
        Just One More Day
 
If I could have just one more day and 
wishes did come true ,
I'd spend every glorious moment
side by side with you.
Recalling all the years we shared
and memories we made,
how grateful I would be
to have just one more day.
Where the tears I've shed are 
not in vain and only fall in bliss,
so many things I'd let you know
about the days you've missed.
I wouldn't have to make pretend
you never went away,
how grateful I would be to
have just one more day.
When that day came to a close
and the sun began to set,
a million times I'd let you know
I never will forget.
The heart of gold you left behind
when you entered Heaven's gate,
how grateful I would be to
have just one more day.

Kathy,

This touched my heart and brought me to tears. I miss my Mom so much and yes, I'd love one more day to tell her all the things I didn't say when she was alive. She was killed at 39 yrs. old by a hit run driver who left her laying in the road. She left 8 kids behind, me the oldest. It seems like only yesterday, thou its been many years.

Love, Linda

A wonderful tribute to your mom. You only get one!
Amen!

Peace, Love and Christ Blessings,

John Michael
