~ For Mom ~ It was thirty years ago While walking in the snow Or were you walking in the rain When you felt that warning pain To let you know that you were ready To go through labor ~ strong and steady To give me life when it was hard Because you always had a job To keep your children clothed and fed Because your life was filled with dread I know when I was growing up That your life was truly tough I remember tears you shed I can see your empty bed I see you sitting in the chair Asking why life's so unfair You always did the best you could You always were so kind and good Now that we are all grown up You sometimes find it still is tough Cause you'll never ever stop To help us through our rough spots For all these things I'm grateful And I know that if you were able You would fill a stranger's table And cause your heart was good as gold My memories of you are still untold. ~~ Francine ~~ Poetry-Emotions This poem is dedicated to my Momma!
