A Day With An Angel
I pick up the phone and dial your number
On this special day I always remember
I wish you would pick up the end of the line
So I could tell you how grateful I am that you’re mine
But all I have left of you now
Are the memories and lessons that you handed down
The pictures I have of your beautiful face
Are all memories now, another time, another place
I’d give almost anything to hug you once more
I wish there was a way to knock on heaven’s door
Just know that I love you my beautiful mom
And I’m very sad, that you are really gone
There are many who say you are always by my side
But I can’t see you, so I’m afraid you must hide
I wonder if somewhere there a magic concoction
A visit to heaven just might be an option
But until I find it, this will have to do
A make-believe day, just me and you
We’ll sit in the sun and drink our sweet tea
But when others will look, they’ll only see me
While you are dancing all around the moon
I will dance with you, in my living room
I’ll sit in the hot tub with my bottle glass of wine
And tell myself stories, “remember that time”
You take a ride on your horse to the sunset
I’ll tell my kids of the cowgirl they’ll never forget
We’ll talk about books and have a good time
Even though the only voice I’ll hear will be mine
But mostly I’ll cry and I’ll swallow my pain
Because I know on this earth I won’t see you again
I’ll forever enjoy these days with you, Mom
For inside my heart you’ll forever live on
