THIS BOY WITHIN

Been thinking about my mother. She died some years ago. I think of how she used to be when I was a kid. The anniversary of her death is in a few weeks. I will read these words when the time is right.

Remembers how his mother loved

Remembers how, remember how

You made my life, you gave me all

Your love for me was your life's work

The things you did you did for me

Your son am I in all I am

You are alive in all I am

I see you now ... alive in me

Your boy I am forevermore

I see you looking down on me

You smile, o how you smile in me!

I feel your arms around me now

Your love for me is my keep safe

Within this boy, in me, deep safe
