I took her home, <br /> <br />she died today <br />after doctors gave up hope. <br /> <br />I buried my only mother today <br />in the sleet and freezing cold <br /> <br /> I placed a stone <br />upon her grave <br />in the dim of dreary light <br /> <br />and tonite, <br />I'l dream of all her warmth, <br />as she lies as cold as ice<br /><br />Deleted<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-burial-of-my-mother/
