Just the Other Day, Mom by Joan Hart | Just the other day, Mom Again I needed you. As I gazed upon your picture Into your eyes of blue.
Memories began unfolding Of times when you were here. Grandchildren all around you As you wiped away their tears.
How much I’d miss your helping hand Back then I never knew. But just the other day, Mom Again I needed you.
Peeling apples in the kitchen For Dad’s favorite apple pie. Your cup of coffee there beside you These memories never die.
How many times I’ve thought about Your thoughtful deeds and ways And though we disagreed sometimes. I miss you so today.
And just the other day, Mom, Stopping to catch a breath or two, I caught the scent of your favorite rose And again I needed you.
You left us all quite suddenly So many years ago. How very much we’ve missed you Surely God has let you know.
The seasons change and the years pass by, But your memory is here to stay For again I found I needed you, Mom, Just the other day... | Joan Hart Copyright 1990 http://www.amyprincess.com/ |
