Mothers

[Scott Williamson]

Okay, I'll start...

[Angharad]

you take daddy's hand...
as you toddle off you turn
and reach for mommy

My little boy forever--I love you so.

[Angharad]

burnt toast and a rose...
the best breakfast of my life
garnished with your love

I'm smiling this morning, my dearest son, remembering the precious gift of you. I love you always.

[Angharad]

mother's day morning...
i hear you whisper sweetly
"i love you mommy!"

i open my eyes
and reach for your little hand...
your giggles echo

As I grow older and nearer the end, you remain forever young. I pray I'll hold you again, my dearest son.

[BellaG]

I am most grateful

for your unique way to show

how much you love us.

[Angharad]

the longer you're gone
the more often i believe
i hear you calling

i start in the night
and swing my feet to the floor...
then i remember

now i wonder if 
you're drawing closer to me
or it's i to you

I love and miss you, Mommy. Happy Mother's Day.

[Angharad]

i'm joyful for all 
the mothers who celebrate
sad for us who mourn

we sit in silence
listening for the echo
of happier times

I long to hear your laughter, son, and feel your cheek against mine. Mother loves you, Gower.

[Angharad]

missing you tonight...
i wish you were fast asleep
in the next bedroom

Happy Mother's Day, M'Dear, wherever you are.

[Angharad]

this morning i woke
from a dream of your sweet voice...
"happy mother's day!"

[Angharad]

i pretend to sleep...
you and your daddy giggle
outside our bedroom

"happy mother's day!!!"
you bustle in laden with
pancakes and flowers

"oh, what a surprise!"
kisses, hugs, and syrup spill...
lilacs bloom in joy

Remembering you today, as I do every day, my dearest son. The joy you gave me never ends. I'll love you forever.

[Angharad]

i see you always
in the corner of my eye
with all my dear ghosts

Missing you, Mommy. Happy Mother's Day.

[Angharad]

i wonder today
what sort of man you would be...
my heart has no doubt

Your precious memory makes this Mother's Day a beautiful one for me, Gower. I love you always.

[Angharad]

i long for your hug
a return to feeling safe
your arms my shelter

The longer you're gone, the more I miss you. I love you, Mommy. Happy Mother's Day.
