MEMORY'S TAKE FLIGHT

Laying awake at night,
memory's in my mind take flight.

Whisking me away to yesterday,
when I was a child at play.

Mother taught me right from wrong,
in my heart she left her song.

Her laughter was music to my ears,
these are the things I hold so dear.

Reliving those care free days,
now that Mothers gone away.

She waits for me with the Lord on high,
where I will join her by and by.
