A Mother's Day wish from the MOMS SITE / Lorre (MOMZ)
Dear Mr. Hallmark,
I am writing to you from heaven,
and though it must appear
a rather strange idea,
I see everything from here.
I just popped in to visit your store
to find a special card
of love for my mother
as this day for her is hard.
There must be some mistake.
I thought you had every card you could imagine
except I could not find a card
from a child who lives in heaven.
She is still a mother too
no matter where I reside.
I had to leave and she understands
but oh the tears she’s cried.
I thought that if I wrote you
that you would come to know
that though I live in heaven now
I still love my mother so.
She talks with me and dreams with me
and we still share laughter too.
Memories are our way of speaking now,
would you see what you can do?
My mother carries me in her heart,
her tears she hides from sight.
She writes poems to honor me,
sometimes far into the lonely night.
She plants flowers in my garden;
and there my living memory dwells.
She writes to other grieving parents
trying to ease their pain as well.
So you see Mr. Hallmark
though I no longer live on earth
I must find a way to remind her
of her wondrous worth
She needs to be honored and remembered too
Just as the children of earth will do.
Thank you Mr. Hallmark,
I know you’ll do your best.
I have done all that I can do
and to you I’ll leave the rest.
Find a way to tell her how
much she means to me.
UIntil I can do it for myself
when she joins me in eternity.
Close
