Family

---

I look up at the evening star,
wonder how you really are,
So hard to know,
so many miles apart.

Will I ever get to say, ‘I love you’
as time slips away.
Or thank you so much,
every way , you loved me.

Knitting, stitching,
So well dressed,
Sacrificed,
and gave your best, to raise me.

There is an ocean now between,
My family, my country green.
My mother dear, so dear to me,
Too far away, to hear me say,
I miss you.

I pray my God will grant me grace,
One more time to see her face
and linger in that warm embrace of Home.
