. <br /> <br />Mother you left us eleven years ago <br />we were all so saddened to see you go. <br />You had a very hard life our dear mam, <br />we remember those days of bread and jam. <br /> <br />You struggled to put food on the table, <br />and to put clothes on our back, but you <br />managed it, and kept us on the right track. <br />Thanks to you we overcame adversity <br />and none of us ever looked back. <br /> <br />You are forever on our mind, <br />a wonderful mother, so honest so kind. <br />And mother your words did come true, <br />all the family, really really do miss you.<br /><br />Gordon Whittaker<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mam/
