Sleep my darling Mother <br />for we know you'll soon depart <br />May your slumber be a blissful one <br />may comfort fill your heart. <br /> <br />Sleep my precious Mother <br />for His Grace has set you free <br />May your respite be a peaceful one <br />for all eternity. <br /> <br />Sleep my lovely Mother <br />even though I'll miss you so <br />May your journey be a good one <br />each and every place you go. <br /> <br />Sleep my pretty Mother <br />even though it breaks my heart <br />May we both look to the future <br />when we'll never have to part. <br /> <br />Sleep my only Mother <br />in the warmth of His Sweet Light <br />May you know how much I miss you <br />how I love you Mom, goodnight. <br /> <br /> <br />For my beautiful Mother Virginia. 1943~2008 <br />I miss you Mommy.<br /><br />Marea Johnson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sleep-my-darling-mother/
