May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer. Psalm 19:14 NIV

Five Years Ago

Five Years ago I sat and watched you as you slept....
fitfully, struggling, tossing.
I sat beside you......
praying, meditating, watching
God nudged me to get up....
go and get something to eat.  You need some nourishment
I went as directed.
I sent Jim off to get himself something to eat
I went back in to the room...........
While I was gone, you left for heaven.
It was your time.
I think I knew all along that this was the day we would say.....
Good-bye.

Today I still miss you.  I'll love you forever,
forever you'll be,
a child of my heart.  

Love, Mom
