I sat and watched you wilt awayonly like a summers day.  To haveand to love like no other, you weremy friend you were my Mother.You fought and fought with all yourmight, but your cancer was to much to fight.  Your personality is what I miss the most, your smile, your hair,and even your touch.You went so soon in my life.  Whowould known just twelve years hadgone by.  We buried you on a rainyday, and everyone around could only say.'It is sad that she lleft edthis way, andDid you know it's Anjel's birthday?'  'Oh, How sad she must be.. Losing her Motherat thirteen.'I was shocked to hear them say these thingsthat had come to play. I wasn't worriedabout cake and ice cream just to hear hersay, she was proud of me.To be a good daughter, a sister, and a wife.To work very hard, and to have a good life.  To always remember that this much true.  Thereis nothing in this world I could not do.The love I have couldn't be close to anotherThe love I have for my precious dear Mother.                  In Memory Of              Carolyn Faye Wideman Written November 30th, 2001 © on Nov 29 2001 05:28 PM PST   0 • 8
