Poetry: Sleep

Sleep my darling Mother
for we know you'll soon depart
May your slumber be a blissful one
may comfort fill your heart.

Sleep my precious Mother
for His Grace has set you free
May your respite be a peaceful one
for all eternity.

Sleep my lovely Mother
even though I"ll miss you so
May your journey be a good one
each and every place you go.

Sleep my pretty Mother
even though it breaks my heart
May we both look to the future
when we'll never have to part.

Sleep my only Mother
in the warmth of His Sweet Light
May you know how much I miss you
how I love you Mom, goodnight.


For my beautiful Mother Virginia. 1943~2008
I miss you Mommy.

    Close your eyes now sleepy one

    Today's battles have been won

    Slumber calls, the angels croon

    A soft and soothing restful tune
