[hometext] => This poem is written about a true situation, the death of my Mother.
[bodytext] => THE DAY I KNEW MY MOMMY DIED
In the church I sat down Looked up front and all around In my heart I was really glad Mommy has been gone Today she's coming back Everyone is quiet, wiping tears How are you, my little dear They"d take my hand and hug me tight And tell me everything would be alright I knew they were sad, my Daddy too But why, I just didn't understand Today was my birthday I was turning six My Mother has been away, she's been sick In a little while, they would bring her back So why are they all such sad sacks The music started in the little church hall People gathered in, both big and small They rolled in the most beautiful bed Mommy inside, covered, except for her head I leaped up and rushed to her bedside Today's my birthday Mommy, I said Reaching up I gently touched her head My party is at two so please get out of bed My aunt came swiftly up to my side It's alright darling, your Mommy has died Then she picked me up and carried me outside Out came my family, only Daddy remained inside They hugged me and kissed me and we all cried The funeral was over, no time did it last The trumpet was blown, with a great blast Then they rolled my Mommy in her beautiful bed Out the church door and into the hearse To the grave, where they covered her with earth My Daddy reached out and took my little hand Your Mother has gone to a better land My Daddy cried and that's all he said While he hugged and rubbed each of us kids Then I knew my Mommy was really dead.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
