Give Me a Kiss Mommy
"I shall be telling this with a sigh".
Robert Frost, 'The Road Less Travelled'.
Mommy,
Maybe I can't remember the moment I was born-
Even the moment the announcer blew his horn.
I will never know the moment I was conceived-
But there is one thing that I know and believe.
That I shall be telling this love story with a sigh-
Because you will forever be the apple of my eye.
You blessed me with a name when we met at birth-
Give me a kiss Mommy, you don't know it's worth.
When, I cried dear Mother, I wanted no one but you-
Your smell, your caress no one else would simply do.
You see you were there Mommy when I felt so alone-
You hugged me, kissed me, even tried to atone.
For the ones that hurt me pierced my young heart-
Sealed it with a kiss you said we would never part.
There were even times that I didn't wish to live-
Kissed me, held my hand said I have so much to give.
Give me a kiss Mommy, for I'll forever need that touch-
That once healed my heart, oh how I love you so much.
I shed a tear for each of my needs you've met-
I can't do enough for you but I shall never forget.
Give me a kiss Mommy please let me reminisce-
Of a love so pure , please Mommy give me a kiss.
