EVERLASTING LIGHT

EVERLASTING LIGHT

I’ll send a flower to my Mother
as I did in childhood days
and although she now rests on a cloud,
with God’s help I’ll find a way.

The sun is warm where her soul resides
and all of the days are bright.
After all these years I still ask of her
to help me do what is right.

I talk to her almost everyday,
can imagine how she’ll feel
when she gets a rose on Mother’s day,
sure to make it a big deal.

At the next first sight of my Mom’s face,
she will smile if I’ve done right,
found my way to the proper place to
bask in everlasting light.
