Sept 2010...In Loving Memory of My Mother

A familiar noise now startles me,

I sadly turn in anticipation,

Knowing "Granny" won't be back,

Is becoming a daily realisation.

You had seen her suffering,

Looked down at her tired face;

So You lifted her to rest,

In Your special chosen place.

Oh Lord, how we miss her,

Even though she is safe with You.

One more hug, a look, a word,

Will never happen again, it's true.

That does not mean we must forget,

Or hide away feelings, so deep.

Our love for her will never change,

Cherished memories, we'll keep.

The loss we feel is hard to bear,

Each heartache You already know;

You understand our every need,

Your comforting love to us, You show.

One day we will be called home too,

To dwell in Heaven for all eternity.

So we await that glorious day,

When, reunited with "Granny" we will be.

 

(By Doreen Hardie)

I will always love and miss you Mum.

Rest peacefully!
