A Poem for the Loss of a Mother
She holds us in so many ways
Carried us two hundred eighty days
Time together lessens each year
As we both learn to get over fears
Each time we must say goodbye
We expect that soon we'll be saying "Hi"
When at least she slips away to sleep
We pray the Lord her soul will keep
And on the day our time has come
To listen to the heavenly strum
We'll join her in new life with Him
Who's light will shine and never dim
-Blake Flannery (2019)
