the poem my cousin wrote for my mom...


Always free for a cup of tea
Or to whip up a six coarse meal
She created a home
Open to all,
And welcomed any whom entered
I will always remember your crazy words
long talks
Sleepovers, camping and
The cabin
Cards, dancing, amazing meals
And Christmas,
With pictionary and wine
Singing and warmth,
These are the time that are cherished


Your gentle soul
And patients will never be forgotten
A woman of might, power and strength,
A warrior of God’s, here on earth.
Teaching lessons of love
Touching everyone in your path
Lessons of determination
Support and encouragement
With just enough push, to get through
Taking moments out of life
Bring people together
Your work here on earth is done
Now is your time to just relax
Celebrate your great works
Which you have left each person
touched by your light
a piece of true beauty
A heart so forgiving and kind
Truly molded by our creator

Every flower is a reminder of you
Colours of bright splendor
A symbol that you loved
And your spirit will continue to grow,
If we look to the gardens.
We will see,
You are still here with us all

love you always mom
