Here's the poem I read you, so that you don't have to try to remember the words.
Somewhere in my heart beneath all my grief and pain,
Is a smile I still wear at the sound of your dear name.
The precious word is ‘mummy’, you're still my world you see,
But now my heart is breaking cause you're no longer here with me.
God chose you for His angel to watch me from above,
To guide me and advise me and know that I’m still loved.
The day you had to leave me
when your life on earth was through,
God had better plans for you, and this, I surely knew.
When I think of your kind heart and all those loving years,
My memories surround me and I can’t hold back the tears.
You truly were my best friend, someone I could confide in,
You always had a tender touch
and a warm and gentle grin.
I want to thank you Mummy for teaching me so well,
And though the time had to come that I bade you your farewell,
I’ll remember all you’ve taught me and make you proud you’ll see.
Thank you my Dear Mummy for all the love you have shown me.
Although you’ve left this earth and now have taken flight,
I know that you are here with me,
each morning, noon and night. Xxx
