Mommy We Miss You

In dreams I see your face so clear
The way you'd laugh lights up my night
The way you worked from dawn til dusk
To keep us fed and clothed and loved.

We mourn our lose that fateful evening
But rejoiced because your pain was gone
We can not truly comprehend it
For we were just your children.

These memories are ours the keep
Somewhere within the tattered heap
Of all that life has to bring us
Through all the trials we have to face

Oh Mommy dear we'll not forget you
You were the main spoke of the wheel
For without your loving arms to guide us
We'd surely not have made it here

Just wait for us,for we are coming
To meet you and Daddy there
Just save my seat right beside you
Until my chores are finished here.
