    Mom

    it was back in the day
    when my life went astray
    july 28 the year 2002
    was the day i turned blue
    they pronounced her dead at 7:30
    i knew the lord had took her to early
    she was my rock she was my sun
    the very next day arraingments begun
    i cant describe how she made me feel inside
    i still cant fathom that my mom has died
    august 1st was the day we buried her
    i was one of the six to carry her
    on that day everything was gray
    dealing with the fact she had passed away
    they closed the doors prepared to take her
    no more suffering she was with her maker
    night after night i couldnt sleep
    for my sweet mother i could only weep
    six years later she feels no pain
    but i always think of her when it starts to rain

    oh wow. this one to. you are a really great poet. im sorry to hear that she has passed... but... i always say and think to my self when i think of my grandma, and best friend... they are both having the time of their lives now... with no fear, worry, or doubt in their minds.

    To have great poets there must be great audiences too.
