A Poem a Day

For Our Special Graduate

If your mom were here to see you
She would be so proud of you today
And we know that from Heaven
She sends her love your way.

We've created this little album
That you can hold and touch.
To remind you of your senior year
And the folks for whom you care so much.

No album about your year
Would ever be complete
Without a photo of the one who loved you most
And whose heritage made you so unique.

I don't know the rules of Heaven
But if God lets Mom's glimpse their kids here below
Your mom is beaming proudly
Because she loves you so!

Dear Daughter

If your mom could give you a message
On this very special day
Knowing of her unconditional love
I feel I know what she would say.

She would tell you how much she loved you
And that she loves you still
That eternity alone can hold a mother's love
For that is the Father's will.

She would tell you that she is proud
Of all you say and do
And that she would not want her leaving
To take the joy of living out of you.

Someday when you meet her there
You can speak again face to face
As you are mother and daughter reunited
Lost in one great big heavenly embrace.
