I have felt so melancholy

I miss you mom.

I search through your photo books

Hoping, of you, to get a look

Most pictures I see are of me

And other family

There are very few of you.

I find this joyful one of You celebrating me before I was born

Mom, since you’re in heaven, there are times I feel forlorn

I miss you, mom.

I miss you here in my middle years

I’d love to share my hopes and fears

As some things change and others equally stay the same

It would be music to my ears to hear your voice respond to my refrain

I miss the warmth of your welcoming embrace

Your tender, and always for me, loving face

Oh the Grace and the tears flow

Because I know

One day I’ll no longer cry

GOD will wipe every tear from my eyes

I know I’ll see you again.

The reality of earthly loss becomes an eternal win

Because, I will see you again

Heaven is real

There the ache of loss will truly heal
