Goodbye Mama
by Nellie Shani Death keep your presence at bay You have taken my mother away As I look at that empty bed Of one who so deeply cared Hot tears roll down my cheeks Like a stream flowing over a creek Your wheelchair broods in a corner The curtain flutters like a banner An icy wind blows though your room Like a widowed bride looking for her groom Death do keep your presence at bay For you have cruelly taken my mother away Why did the sun rise today It should also have stayed away Surely how could you rise as usual When her demise is so brutal I beseech you death keep your presence at bay You have taken a part of me away Nellie Odhuno Shani is a Counselor, Conference speaker and writer. Her first books are available on amazon.com, Barnes and Nobles and on her author's websites. Article Source: http://www.faithwriters.com |
