Mother,
The heavens have opened
And received you
In eternal rest you sleep
You carry a piece of me with you
For I cannot see you
But in your presence I feel you
My desire is to be closer to you
In my dreams I seek you
Every breath I take
I breathe you
Your blood runs through me
Who would I be without you
Sorrow and anxiety overtake me
The dark waters of fear seek to drown me
Throw out your lifeline and comfort me
Mother I need you
Father has again abandoned me
He never deserved you
I pray for the day I once again see you
I was but three when you left me
So I struggle to remember you
But In my heart I will always carry you
Always remember I love you.
Intimate Compositions

I knew your Mother in High School. She was a beautiful person inside and out! Alice Churchman Muehlhof

If you have time I’d like to talk to you more about my mother. I’m not sure how close you were to her, but she died in 1981. I have no memory of her as I was three years old when she died.
