[bodytext] => Infant years still play heavy on my heart, Times of your presenceStill remain fresh to the senses; memories of wine now suddenly dryRelentless to subdue to your love light, sweet caress of good bye. Whisper in my ear, to tell me I was loved and to hold my head up highYet through a subtle kiss of my head as I slept, you still remain by my side, strong in my mind. A proud woman, backed to sleep to gods grace by a tender age of sixtyHer love already fallen to the sands of time, alone in her retracted step Yet never once did your love for family lessen, heart remained truePreserved for all to see, and believe me, we all adored you too Even now, zero distorted view, I just wish I could have been there, one last time, to hug, I long for your embrace, nights are cold, silent Whilst reminiscing the smile to faceScent of the flowers beside your grave, remain true to my scent, never to pass, ever to last, in memories of past. Taken from the grasp of youth, by power unforgivable to forgetGave life to 7 children of god, one of which gracefully gave birth to a poet. It was whispered that I was your favourite, but I refuse to embrace As you loved all of your family none of which in first or last placeIn the knowing you are safe in gods grand, Im secure in love In the knowing angel over my being, watching down with eyes of gold, smiling above. As the tears wept from sorrow of loss in heart, passes into the mist of timeMy head rises with a smile as I feel your love sill wrapping me in warmthSweet in sound, your voice remains to linger in my head, to comfort in the solemn nights. Lost in emotion, lead me home to thought of happier timesDancing in the street, playing in the park, passing days and weeks, in our stride, never to know truly How much your love meant to my up bringing. Through poverty strived, arisen victorious through mist Brought days of sun shine in your path, we laughed As the world passed us by, patch our self on a patch of grass. You kept our family together, the thread that bind our hearts close Yet since youve left, the thread broke, no longer are words spoke. In loving memory, of a woman that remains in our hearts for ever more.
