The Ribbon - Care for Caregivers
As Time Goes By
by Loraine (WilloRain)

People say that we're alike
In oh so many ways.
That was true before you left,
Back in the "Good Ole Days."

§«:*´`³ ³´`*:»§

But now that times are different
And you cannot recall,
I see that look upon your face,
As tears begin to fall.

§«:*´`³ ³´`*:»§

We've laughed and cried and shared our lives,
As months and years passed by.
But now you don't remember,
As you sit and wonder why.

§«:*´`³ ³´`*:»§

I've Prayed that God restore you,
Or we travel back in time,
So you can pick the memories
Like flowers on the vine.

§«:*´`³ ³´`*:»§

Time has robbed your memory
Of such important things.
Soon you'll hear that gentle call,
And fly on Angel Wings.

§«:*´`³ ³´`*:»§

But till that time, we'll hold on tight
To good things that we share.
And when the time has come to leave,
You'll feel God's Loving Care.

§«:*´`³ ³´`*:»§

No matter what the future holds,
I never will forget,
When people said "We're So Alike"
I'll have Not One Regret.

§«:*´`³ ³´`*:»§

And I will still be like you,
And you will be with me.
You will be within my heart,
And your mind will be set free...

Dedicated to my "Little Mama"
I Love You Mom !

Loraine....
