Remembering Her (Poem)
Dedicated to My Mother
In her memory I write this
for today is a time
to remember and reminisce
of all that's passed in time
for today is a time
to remember and reminisce
of all that's passed in time
She was a wonderful mother
in her own special way
I'm sorry I never told her that
before she went away
She taught and disciplined me
with a harsh but loving strictness
Bringing me up to be
a lady of virtue and intelligence
I loved her with all of my heart
though I never told her so
She's the best mother I've ever had
and this I'll always know
[Poetry Notebook: 5/7/1992, her birthday]

Wow, I like that.
nice poetry. Lost my mom in 1994. She had a hard life dealing with my father and died of lung cancer at 49. I agree with you, wished I had known her better
