To My Mother, Happy Mother’s Day

Thank you to Barbara Bentran from Newcastle, Wyoming for sending this poem to us for Mothers Day. She said she received this poem a few years ago from a co-worker of her husbands on Mother's Day in memory of their daughter "Cheyenne" who became an angel on Nov. 10th 2006 when she was 2 months old.

To My Mother, Happy Mother’s Day

 ~ by Dawn Mitchell 1998

I see you each time

you shed a tear

I catch it and kiss you

I hope you know that I'm near

This place is so beautiful

There's so much to see!

I know that someday

You'll be here with me.

The angels were singing

When I arrived!

Jesus was there

With His arms open wide!

The snow and the rain

Are just my confetti.

I know you'll be coming

And I want to be ready.

When you feel the wind

It's me walking by

I can run and skip now

I can even fly!

When the blossoms and leaves

Fall into your hair

It's me planting kisses

Yes, I put them there!

The birds are singing

To keep you company

They're especially for you

With love from me.

I know that you miss me

And feel so alone

Until the great day

When you finally come home

Please remember this mom

As seasons change from one to another

I'll always love you

You're my friend and my mother
