Momma's Notebook
Up on the closet's shelf
I found your notebook
Left there from years ago
I decided in it I would take a look
It held no mysteries or
great secrets
Just a place fro you to jot a note
When you watched the shopping show
Little details of items in it you wrote
I slowly began to turn
the pages
Looking at what your hand had penned
No one could possibly have an idea
Of the feeling inside of me that did begin
I found myself slowly
reading over the words
And with an easy touch from my fingertips
Running across each entry that was in the book
Mom, your touch I felt as I was touching your scripts
The tears fall from my eyes and onto
the page they drop
As I close the notebook, I remember your loving touch
Warmth and comfort I felt when in your arms I was held
I now feel you again as against my heart the notebook I clutch
