HAPPY MOTHERS DAY

THE TIME IS NOW


If you ever going to Love me,
Love me now,while I can know
The sweet and tender feelings
Which from true affection flow,
Love me now.
While I am living
Do not wait till I'm gone
And then have it chiseled in
marble
Sweet words on ice cold stone
If you have tendered thoughts
of me.
Please tell me now.
if you wait until I am sleeping
Never to awaken,
There will be death between us
And I won.t hear you then.

So,if you love me.even a little
bit,
Let me know it while I am living
So I can treasure it.


I found this poem, in a cut out clippings
from my aunt last 2002.It was a dream come
true to me when I was able to visit her in
San Francisco but sad to say she died 3 days
after I arrived.

Excerpt from the letter:
I had a marvelous mother who loved , sacrificed
for and helped me in every way possible.All my years
of growing up,through college and eventually marriage,
my mother was at my side.now she is gone,and I was not able
to tell her what she meant to me, worse yet I did not treat her
as she deserved to be treated.

I was deeply moved by this letter,knowing now how it feels to
be a mother,My mom is also great ,she has lot of patience ,I've
seen her ups and down and how she loves my papa until the end.
We,children sometimes forget how important our mothers are,
the unconditional Love they are giving us and yet at times we
do not understand them,

To all mothers ,I congratulate you for being one of a kind,



HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO ALL

  2. Jojo..this is nice posting and it certainly touched me, as a daughter who misses her mom and as a mom who is cherishing Aidan.

    I miss your postings and wish you would post more often.

    Happy Mother's day to you and your mom! Hugs and kisses to you all.
