73 years ago today



Hi Everyone,
73 years ago today my mother was born on St. Josephs day,
thus her name Josephine, I wrote this poem in memory of her.
I miss her more today than yesterday,but not as much as tomorrow.
Thanks for visiting my blog,
Take Care,
Janet :)

When I miss you

When I miss you mom
I turn towards the sun
With the rays on my face
I feel your love and grace

When I miss your hold
I stand still in the wind
and feel the strength of
your soul

When I miss your eyes,
I sit by the beach
So beautiful,
So blue, so at peace

When I miss your smile,
I look to the night
Each star wishes
they could be so bright

When I miss everything
about you,
I stand in the rain,
until is washes away
the pain

When I look at what you
left behind, I am so
blessed and believe
Every time our family is
together, your spirit
lives on in all of us
and will never leave
