Temporary Resurrection

Instantly she appeared before me so tall and thin
her skin pale and soft lightly dusted with freckles from the southern sun.
Her eyes sparkled as I eagerly ran towards her
She met me half way with poise and grace
A smile stretched across her face
She knelt to her knees
with a warm embrace.
Together we walked again as the Atlantic surf tickled our toes
Echoes of beach music floated in the wind
Hoots and hollars from the bingo parlor bounced across the waves.
Her arms held me tight as we gently swayed back and forth on the Ferris wheel
On top of the world together we sat
Peering down on others that looked like ants.
In shades of black and white her image flickers on the wall
silently I sit tears begin to flow.
Then click click click ... Light on , That’s the end !
Patiently, I wait for the next film to roll...
Dearly Departed

Trembling with fear
scared at heart
I feel to my knees
when I heard she passed on.
“She left us today “
were the words that I heard
It was unbelievable to me ,
that my mother was gone .
confused and discouraged
at life’s cruel path.
Yet relived and peaceful
that her suffering had past.
I fought with depression
until I set her free
With my very own hands
into the sea.
Hands covered with her dust
lay across my chest
Then wiped on my soul
her memory forever caressed.
No Matter What

A mother loves you
No matter what
Despite what you say
Or what you might do
A mother loves you no matter what.
So what do you do if your mother is gone...
Try to make her proud
No matter what !
