Haikus for Mother's Day May 13th

Mom

Without her I Do
Not exist except in Her
Imagination

Mother

Ever Faithfully
Lovingly working in the
Home to make it good

Grandma

Spoiling the kids
That look quite a bit like hers
Wants to start over

Daughter

Dreams she had more time
To spend with her mother who
Lives so far away

Aunt

Necklace you crocheted
I still proudly wear at work -
Photo of the beach

Auntie

I miss your smile
Sweet laugh and the delicious
Hand-made tortillas

Friend

You were there for me
Bikes rides games and movies too
My fair wedding maid

Sister

Wondering what kind
Of sister I would have had -
My friends have been great

Child

Wondering what kind
Of person you would have been -
Are you in heaven

Cousins

I loved you dearly
I hate that you died so young
We had such good times


Wife to husband

Sorry for the times
I failed with my emotions -
Please forgive me now

Sons

How could anyone
Expect any more from you
Who are Gifts from God

Church Kids

I will miss you all
Our bonds will survive for years
Believe God Loves You

God

I know you are near

Even though you seem so far

Help me to be true

Peace

Today I pray for
Peace in this pazzo world -
What caused this chaos
