My Beautiful Mother Poem by Marea Johnson

Hands so soft, as only a Mother's could be
So warm and so gentle, reaching out to me.

Eyes full of love, so tender and brown
Twinkle like diamonds, big, bright and round.

Face of an angel, perfect in form
Fine flawless skin, so sweet and so warm.

Heart of a Saint, so perfect and true
I couldn't have imagined how much I'd miss you.

My beautiful Mother, how I miss you so much
How I'd give all I own to feel the sweet touch

Of the warm hands so soft that can belong to no other
But to only my sweet and beautiful Mother.


For my beautiful mother Virginia,1943~2008
I miss you Mommy.
