Mommy is it Far?

Topic:

A little face with big blue eyes
looks up into the night time sky
and sings:
"Twinkle, twinkle little star
tell me Mommy is heaven far?
I didn't get to say good-bye,
and when you left my Daddy cried.
I need to come and bring you home,
so me and Dad won't be alone.
Mommy is it far
to Heavens gate?
Can I ride my bike that far,
or maybe Dad could drive the car?
Mommy, are you that far away?
Can you come home to us and stay?
Someone told me you are a star,
is that you shinning up so far?
Mommy is it far
to Heavens gate?
Grand-Ma says you are with God.
I'll trade him for my fishing rod,
I'll give him every thing I got.
I know it's not an awful lot,
but maybe he will understand
how much I need to hold you hand.
Mommy is it far?
Here's my fishing pole."

| I really like this poem. But there is one thing that is bugging me. And that is that this poem and several quite similar to it have been sent to me through email tons of times. Just curious to know if you knew that or not... |

Thank you for letting me know that. I wrote this poem some years ago. A young lady who lived near me passed away suddenly. She left behind a little boy with blue eyes. That is who this poem is about. It was posted on the old Your_Poetry site, and on my web pages. I know that my Aunt passed it around but, I didn't know how far it went.
Could it have been under my name - Diana Primus? I use the pen name Thorn M Engla. |

Thank you for letting me know. Did you happen to also recieve one called "Take Care of Our Little Girl"?
Ya know, I made the mistake of putting "Mommy is it Far?" on that web site Poetry .com, (not this site, but a rip off site).
May all beware of Poetry.com! They have been exposed by the media!
Stick with Your-Poetry.com - Mick has a good site here! |

Loved the ending: "Mommy is it far? Here's my fishing pole". |

This is very sad but beautiful at the same time. I felt like smiling for the sweetness of the child as well as crying for the loss while I read it.
I really enjoyed this.

This was just so bittersweet- the child's love for his mother was palpable and his incomprehension of her death just made me want to cry. In short this poem was perfect.

I followed the link off the home page and just listened to the recording of this! Congratulations!!! I imagine you must be delighted!!!!
The lyrics themselves are touching and obviously quite sad. I cannot, though, help but feeling uplifted by having listened to the song. As a lover of art and artists, poetry and poets and most notably right now - songs and songwriters - I find your achievement thrilling and inspirational!! I sooo wish it was possible to listen to a similar recording of ALL of the lyrics on this site! There are so many that do so entirely merit recording and a wider audience than is found here. I do so hope that all of the songwriters on this site notice that link on the homepage and realize that this is possible for them as well. You're a terrific example of the fabulous things that can happen if you never give up a dream and commit yourself to making it come true!
Congratulations again!
Wishing you continued success,
~Snemmy |

Dear Ramatie, That is a serious charge.
I did not plagiarize this poem, I wrote it years ago. It has been sent out in emails and such for a long time.
Please, show me, or tell me where I can find the poem you are speaking of. I would not do something like that intentionaly.
TIA

| I respect the innocence of this work. It is one ting to have the mind of a child, so easy when we are young. But for an adult or adult-minded person to recreate the same emotional atmosphere requires an orginality of imagination. And in a world where orginalality is lost and imagination tends to be bleak, that is not easy. Well imagined. |

The concept of life after death intrigues many people from many nations and walks of life. It seems to me that Death is indeed a cruel disease never intended for mankind and one day the truth will be revealed and both the little girl and her Mother will use the fishing pole to fish together.
