Ode 2 Momma Rufus Poem by Linda I. Weischedel

When disappointment is at it's peak,
when my tolerance and patience have grown weak.
When my sunny disposition is closing to a near end,
along comes you my long time trusted friend.

I believe the unselfish love that dwells within your beautiful soul,
is the main factor why my total being remains whole,
and your love for me keeps my emotional heart in steady control.

At this moment you may feel you are no longer of use to anyone right now,
again proving another lesson in faith by not giving up and throwing in your own towel.

Think of all the faces you still know,
remembering the unconditional love that they are to show,
in your mind transfer and map out all the places you've always
wanted to go,
now you must take the time to get stronger and with that new and improved heart always feel how much
I love and need you so!

My Mom passed away July 3rd 2007,
yet I know my Momma Rufus
is watching out for me up there in heaven.
Foreven in my heart, I love you Mom....
