Though it’s been nearly 20 years
There are still times I shed tears
For when your life came to an end
I lost my mother and my best friend
I know we’ll be reunited again
But for now and until then
I think upon the memories
Of how things used to be
I reflect on my childhood days
When upon your lap my head I’d lay
As you ran your fingers through my hair
I felt as though I hadn’t a care
I reminisce about picnics in the park
Sitting on the front porch after dark
Summer vacations at the shore
Where we had fun galore
I remember when I was afraid
Right by my bed you stayed
You calmed my fears
As you dried the tears
I recall feeling down and out
And all I wanted to do was pout
You would always cheer me on
Until my blue mood was gone
You loved when I was unlovable
And gave you nothing but trouble
When I was a rebellious teen
And all the years in between
Now that I’m a mom too
I strive to be just like you
For you were unlike any other
My best friend, my precious mother
