FROM MOTHER TO SON

My life has been bound up

with your life for years

I've watched you grow up

with my pride and my fears

My life and your life,

both twined together

since before you were born,

and on to Forever ~

I'm at peace; do not mourn.

I prayed for you, son,

when you went to war,

Now I've fought my battle,

and I fight no more ~

I know you will miss me,

as I have missed you

no matter what else,

I know this to be true.

You must move on.

I'll look out for you;

as I've always done,

I'll continue to do.

Remember me, son,

with a smile, if you will ~

and I'll help you make it

up every steep hill.

I love you, my son,

and I'll always be near

I'm with you in spirit,

for always, my dear.
