Candle for Mum


You loved and laughed, you loved life,

A year has gone by without you by our side,

Yet we cannot with this grief cope or deal,

Wounds in our hearts are hard to heal.


A mother and a friend you’ve always been

We miss your smile, your reassuring ways,

Your love, warmth, guidance and comfort,

Your prayers and blessings we still seek.


Suffering and pain, you bore it all,

Never did you complain,

Still in disbelief,

We can only grieve.


Time heals all wounds they say,

But your untimely departure has left an indelible scar

We pay homage today dear Mother

And light a candle in your memory from afar.

    Thank you Tony for the beautiful poem, for your time and specially for loving my Mum so dearly all these years. She will continue to shower her blessings on you from above.

    Your Loving wife

    This kind of mulch s also more natural looking
    than other mulch choices out there for the delicate look of flower
    gardens. Owning a regular lawn mower does not mean you have to give up
    on mulching your
    yard; you just have to be willing to do some work. In this same respect, mulch aids in the prevention of
    soil splashing onto plants.
