I stepped out of my car. The wind was blowing hard but the day was warm. I looked around the place. It was quiet. No one was there but me. I guess some people just don't visit relatives on Thursday. I held the flowers and the picture of the last picture me and my mother took together in my hand. I slowly walked through the grass passing all the Tombstones of other people. My mothers was the only one on a hill by a little tree and a bench. It was one of the best places. when I die I want to be buried on that same hill next to my mother. I'm sure I would've felt close right there and happy.
My mothers tombstone had flowers around it. From family friends and fans. I looked at where her name was. It said Leah Haughton in cursive letters. IT was absolutely beautiful to me. I dropped down to my knees and cleared a spot for me to put the picture. I placed it there along with the flowers and then kissed the tombstone."Thank you mommy."I smiled. There was a soft breeze. I knew she was saying your welcome.
"I've been crazy busy."i said. still looking at the stone."I'm going on my tour soon. My album sold just as many as your first album did. I'm kinda of nervous, Not because of the tour but because I have to spend five months away from Rashad,Michael, Susanne, and Jo Anna. You know when I lost I thought I'll never have a real family again. But I realize that they are all the family I need. They were right there the whole time. And I love them for that."i smiled again thinking of them."You know, I am very blessed. And I know right now your smiling down on me. You are defiantly here with me Spiritually. You help me make the decisions I make and everything. One day I'll be up there with you. But It's not gonna be anytime soon though. I want to live longer then this."I laughed. I reached out and touched the tombstone. "I miss you Mommy, and I love you, More then you would ever know."I tear rolled down my cheek. I stood up and wiped it away."Bye Mommy."I bent down and kissed the tombstone once more. Then I pulled my shades back on, blew her another kiss, and turned and walked away.
I felt her spirit with me every where I went. I knew she allowed those people that I know in my life because she doesn't want me to be lonely and she chose all the right people. It started with Susanne to take on the roll of my mother, Then it was Michael to take on the roll of my best friend and now lover, Then it was Jo Anna who took on the roll of my crazy country best friend. Then last but not least Keith, who took on the roll of......well....my big brother of course. And I think her for that because I don't know where I'd be with out them.
