'Don't Forget Me' Poem by Lodigiana Poetess

Don't forget me' my mum said, at school on my first day.
She smiled her smile and blew a kiss and slowly walked away.
'Don't forget me' my mum said whilst helping me to pack,
but knew that when Uni was done I'd soon be coming back.
‘Don't forget me' My mum said through tears of joy and pride,
as I walked down the aisle that day a blushing, happy bride.
Throughout the years she'd say those words and I would always say..
‘Forget you mum? There's not a chance you'd ever go away from
all my thoughts of happy days and being close to you,
and all the special things you'd say and all the things you'd do,
your image is imprinted and indelible you see..
I only wish that you had such a memory now of me…..
Your eyes cloud over and you frown when I come in the room,
I see you look at me and blankly stare back in your gloom,
I hold your hand and tell you that no matter what you do,
My darling, lovely angel mum- I'll never forget you.
