My Mother Poem by Donna Saphier

When my mother passed away
It broke me into pieces
The pain it does get easier
But it never ceases
My mum was such a lady
Proud in every way
She would do most anything
Just to make your day
She was only tiny
Slim but very smart
I never thought she'd pass away
Cause we never were apart
I watched her dying slowly
There was nothing I could do
I couldn't bear to watch her die
The pain that she went through
She was always smiling
Nothing got her down
Well she put on a very tough face
And she deserved a crown
Her name should be in writing
High up in the sky
All lit up by shining stars
To stop the passers by
I know now she's an angel
Loving, caring, true
If anything should happen to you
She would look after you
I'd love to hold her tight
And tell her how I feel
She'd tell me not to cry or greive
And that I soon would heal
Goodbye my dearest mother
My mother and my friend
You were the best I've ever known
Right until the end
Sleep tight and rest
We'll meet up soon
My mother was the best
I know she's not in pain no more
She's peaceful and at rest
