Poetry & Prose ~ "The Eyes of My Heart"



Mom, the eyes of my heart will forever see,
            Just how special your love will always be.
Throughout the years you were always there,
            With gentle smiles and many heartfelt prayers.

Unwavering in your unconditional love for everyone,
            Your embraced us in the warmth of your love.
When the storms and trials of life came our way,
            You always had words of wisdom for each new day.

You freely gave of yourself to give us a better life,
            Putting aside your own desires, making many a sacrifice.
You laughed with us through the joys we shared,
            And cried with us showing how much you cared.

Now that you've gone home to be with our Lord,
            I know that I will see you on Heaven’s shore.
You are with that great cloud of witnesses watching from Heaven above,
            Cheering us on in prayer, surrounding us with your love.
           
From the depths of my heart, I thank you once again,
            For being my mom and for being my friend.
For it is the eyes of my heart that will always see,
            Just how much your motherly love means to me.

From your loving daughter, forever.

Poetry & Prose Tuesday ~~ "Love Is"



"LOVE IS"



Love is like a flower
            that never fades away.
It blooms forth ever so brightly
            and does not close at the end of day.

Love is like a fragrant aroma
            that lingers in the air.
Its scent grows even stronger
            when matched up with a pair.

Love is like a delicious dessert
            piled high with whipping cream.
It covers over a multitude of sins
            and helps you live your dream.

Love is that touch of a tender hand
            that signals you are special.
It’s quite often extended
            just when your need is crucial.

Love is the song that plays
            upon the tender strings of your heart.
Its melody is the shield
            that will protect you from the fiery dart.

So reach out and
            See
            Smell
            Taste
            Touch
            And listen to love today!

You will be glad you did
            and it will keep you from fading away.
