Sentimental Song
"The love between a mother and daughter is like nothing else
in the world. It has no rules, it dares all things and crushes all
that stand in its way, and cannot be destroyed, even by death."
Quote by - Constance
The old song I'll Be Seeing You . . .
Oh, Mom loved this sentimental song so blue;
I played it for her- the day to Heaven she flew,
she used to sing it all the time !
I find the words really sublime . . .
and each sad lyric true- and makes my heart chime;
now, I too will embrace the words for my lifetime,
Often, I see my Mom in odd places !
There she is among the faces . . .
at a park walking- and my heart races;
and in my mind that song and memory laces,
I see my Mom in each new morn !
She is with me as the moon is born . . .
and the song- that song should be now timeworn;
but, I find it beautiful and comforting as I mourn,
with the words of I'll Be Seeing You !
