Poetry Contest Entry - Mom’s Thoughts by Amiee Kate Helms

by Amiee Kate Helms

All I have are pictures left to kiss,
A few of your possessions left to hold,
But the treasures true,
They lie down deep…
Deep within my heart and soul….
Deep inside of Me…..

I see your face and you smile at me,
You tease to make me laugh…
I hear your songs… And your music
resonates among my soul…
While your words, “I love you, Mom”
Echo… in every thought, of you….

You are my precious child,
I’ll hold you here… inside of me,
You’ll always be my son, my friend,
A special part of me…
You are my precious child,
I love you forever,
You’ll always be my Gabriel,
A special part of me…

Deep inside me, Son,
We can never part…
Though you’ve gone to live in Heaven,
In the everlasting world…
A part of you remains on earth… In M e…

All I have are pictures left to kiss,
A few of your possessions left to hold,
But the treasures true,
They lie down deep…
Deep within my heart and soul….
Deep inside of Me…..
