When A Daughter Cries


http://halfmanhalfgreek.files.wordpress.com/2010/07/sad-woman.jpg

when a mother cries
her tears stab at her daughter’s heart
as they plummet to the floor

when a mother cries
he daughter cries too
because her heroine is wounded and she doesn’t know how or why
she cries because she cannot rid her mother of the pain
she cries most of all because she loves her mother

when a daughter cries because her mother cries,
her mother cries more
because her weakness has hurt her child
she cries because it hurts to know she’s the cause of her daughter’s tears.
she cries most of all because she loves her daughter

once the tears have ceased however
love remains
the love forever shared between a mother and her daughter

			I am a sixty plenty wife, mother, sister, grandmother and friend.  I started blogging as a coping mechanism during my beautiful daughter's final journey.  Vic was desperately ill for 10 years after a botched back operation.  

Vic's Journey ended on 18 January 2013 at 10:35.  She was the most courageous person in the world and has inspired thousands of people all over the world.  Vic's two boys are monuments of her existence.  She was an amazing mother, daughter, sister and friend.  

I will miss you today, tomorrow and forever my Angle Child.

    the love you share
    
the words that say you care
    
those moments between you and your daughter
    
those drops of peace and happiness and joy
    
save them like drops of pearls
    
save them like diamonds rare
    
that is a form of unending love
    
that gives and gives and never expects
    
be there like a rock for your child
    
and i am sure she would win and survive
    
our world is one of miracles too
    
our world is an oasis rarities
    
and your child too shall her courage prove
    
just be there with a smile always
    
give her the courage to stand taller than before
    
she shall overcome her struggles soon
    
prove all wrong and herself right
    
she must win and win this time
    
make sure you are there to know
    
witness her strength, her wars, her fight
    
love can kill the worst of fears and
    
happiness shall soon return
    
changing the way she views her life…
    

    with love and regards… 
    

    Dedicated to Vic and her wonderful Mom. :)
