A Mother's Day Poem From our son Jonathan:
The formatting may be off, but here's a draft poem from Mother's Day called
"She's Not Here", inspired by a message dad wrote.
She's Not Here
The flowers on her graveside look beautiful.
I'm sure she would have loved them, her eyes giving that special twinkle they
always did when delighted.
But she's not here.
I remember once after attending a wake, how she took me aside and said,
"When I die, that won't be me in there.
It'll only be a shell, and I'll be in heaven."
Still, I cried when she took her turn.
Her Spirit dancing beyond the veil,
yet my eyes stayed fixed upon
her simple wooden box - now safely hidden beneath a heavy carven stone,
holding fast my heart.
Today my burden lifted, set free by two simple phrases: "She's not here. She is
risen."
I wonder now, why it took me so long to move from remembering to knowing.
Why I kept on seeking her among the dead and not the living.
I miss her so much, but she's not here.
She is risen.
