6th anniversary never gets easier #Mother #missed #heartbreaking #poem #poetry
2 blonde women one the older one sitting on a chair wearing pink pj's black housecoat with pale pink stars second woman sitting on arm of the chair with her arm around the other wearing a black dress with glitter swirls on sleeves. This was our last photo ever taken together Mothers day Dublin 2019 2days later Mother was suddenly and without warning gone........๐Ÿ’”๐ŸคŸ๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ’ž๐Ÿ•ฏโœจ๏ธ Ma, Mother, Momma too.... Another trip around the sun, and you're not here to share the fun. We miss your presence and your voice too, with the good advice that would always get us through. The family is getting bigger now, may the circle of life never stop. Your life, your love, your work, and your deeds were not in vain. You just planted seeds. Your memory lives on we your children never forgot the lasting memories you gave us as your parting shot. Live, love, and laughter too they may have been scarce, but this is how we want to remember you. Six years apart, the clock of pain did start, and yet you are still very much alive in our hearts. Rest now, Mother, you earned your keep the seeds you sown your children's children and so on will reap. ยฉ๏ธ Vanessa O'Connell 02/04/2025 A poem I wrote for my Mother today
