I had a dream last night
And you were in it, Mom
Every so often you are
Trying to tell me something
By being a trickster
Appearing as a blonde
Or by looking like me, except much shorter
With skin of honey and almond tanned hue
Like you did last night/
One time you appeared to me
In your favorite slate blue nightgown
I awoke with tears
Streaming down my face
Soaking the pillow
You were telling me to live
To experience, to love
To follow my passion
To live life while I have the chance
But the chance was gone somehow/
And although it has been years
Since your passing
Not one day goes by
Without me thinking of you
I know the power of love is
Stronger than death
That our love transcends
The rapture and the cosmos
I miss you so
I hug you and smell you
I feel the soft crepe thin skin
On your small hands
In my dreams
I love you/
Really resonates. 🫂 Thank you.
Oh Pamela! This is so beautiful and heart-rending. Sending you so much love for sharing these words.
