The phone is ringing in Heaven,
God answers the telephone call,
Hey, my child how are you doing,
Fine, I said, I wish my mom could come home.
She came to visit you in January,
I miss her so much you see,
I was wondering if you could do something
Could you do something for me.
Well, child what is it,
What do you want to know,
What do you want me to do,
You know, I love you so.
Well, Lord I can't get through this problem,
I can't understand why,
Why did you have to take her now,
To me it was at the wrong time.
See I have so much more to say to her,
And so much more to learn,
I have her four grand children to raise,
I don't think I can do it without her.
What about in the mornings,
When I wake up and think,
I want to call her up and say hello,
But I know it is a mistake.
When I am down and lonely,
And automatically think of her,
I then have to remember,
She is not with me anymore.
Today seemed to go by just fine,
Until her picture that I see,
Memories come flooding back,
All I have inside of me.
Well, can't you see the problem,
Cant you feel my pain,
Can you allow a miracle,
Before I go insane.
Can you let me speak to her,
Let me know if she is ok,
Let me spend a few more minutes with her.
I think I could be happy again.
Child, you know that I love you,
And she is now with me,
She is not in any pain,
Or in agony,
She is happy happy happy,
Joy is filling her soul,
She is a very healthy woman now,
Maybe that is all you need to know.
Well, Lord all that makes me happy,
It helps me get through another day,
But Lord I can't help it,
I miss her more each day.
I don't want to be selfish,
I don't want to make her sad,
I just wish I could hug and kiss my moma,
I believe with all my heart she was the best mom anyone could have.

Sandy,
This made me cry. Made me think of my own mother. I'm almost 43 now and I lost her to cancer when I was 18. I long for her daily. My mother was my best friend, as I know your mother was to you. I try to think of my mom as one of the angels that follow me. (they say we have several loved ones that stay near when they pass). I honor your faith and I like how you wrote this.
Much peace and hugs,
Laura |

I'm sorry Sandy...Rita died last week. She had been ill in hospital for a while, I recieved an email from Stitch, who recieved one from Consue about it.
As far as I can tell, they didn;t know what was wrong with her, except that it was her heart.
I'm sorry, Sandy. It has been a shock to us all.
I am here if you need to talk.
Love,
Phil xxx |
