To My Mother In Heaven

To my mother in Heaven,
Whom I miss very much;
I wish you were here,
Just to feel your tender touch.

You left me at an early age,
To go to the Father above;
And now I'm left here on my own,
Without your precious love.

I can't forget that awful day,
The day the ambulance came;
I knew from then that moment on,
That things wouldn't be the same.

I am now blessed with a beautiful wife,
And three lovely children who care;
Always telling them of my dear sweet mother,
With whom my secrets I shared.

To my mother in Heaven,
I just want to say "Hi";
Hoping to see you once again,
On that day when I die.
