SKY'S THE LIMITT

CARMELA ELIZABETH GALGANO
(FOR MY MOM WHO PASSED AWAY MAY 7TH, 2009)
By james a. galgano

YOU CANNOT BURY MEMORIES OF HER
EVEN LONG AFTER WE ARE GONE
SUCH A LOVING SMILE AS HERS WILL LINGER ON
AND HER WARM REDEMPTIVE EMBRACE
WILL REMAIN AN ETERNAL ECHO IN OUR MINDS
TO THE POSSIBLE WONDERS OF LIFE
WHICH SURROUND US STILL IN HER ABSENCE
WE WILL NEVER FORGET THE PARENT
WHO BROUGHT US INTO THIS WORLD
FED US, CHANGED US, TAUGHT US
AND LOVED US NO MATTER HOW OLD WE WERE
HERE INNOCENT DEVOTION TO HER BELIEFS
WILL FOREVER BE A MODEL TO ALL WHO FOLLOW
ETERNALLY SHE WILL REMAIN A SAINT, A SINNER,
A COMFORT AND A WONDER, OUR MOTHER
