Mother’s Day Without You Poem by Connie Webb

It is the second year
Without you near,
But I hold you in my heart
My love will never part.

I treasure all our love we shared
How you took the time and really cared,
And even troubles that we had
Things that went wrong or bad,
Those things have faded away
And loving memories are here to stay.

So this Mother’s Day without you here
Will not go by without a tear
Because I loved you very much
And miss your warm and loving touch.

The sound of your voice with words so kind
Will always stay inside my mind
I will never forget you and love you forever
To let our love go I will never.

Thank you for all you have done for me
Helping me through joy and misery
Being there to help when no one else could
Loving me like a mother should.

Reaching out to me even when it was tough
Staying with me when things got rough
Loving me even when I was bad
Or even when I made you mad;
Like the time that I ran away
Your love I still couldn’t sway
You loved me with patience galore
Even when I was less to adore -
With a foul mouth and attitude
You still helped me find gratitude.

Between us we shared highs and lows
But as far as our love goes
No one can ever take that way
Even if you aren’t here today.

So I say a prayer to God above
Please show my mom Mother’s Day love
Tell her for me I love her still
And that I always will.
