Mom, we haven't always agreed
Sometimes I have been a pain
Now I see what you see
You loved even when I
was to blame.

I am sorry for not being there
When I should have been
I am sorry for dismissing
All the things that might have been

Even through all these things
I loved you with my whole heart
Always and forever
Even though we didnt always get along
Even from the start

I am going to miss your smile
Miss your little laugh
Miss the talks when you talked a while
Feels like my heart is ripped into two
Completely, whole in half

I can remember the good times
I will remember the bad
I will remember when we were happy
Even when we were sad

You will remembered in my heart
Every day I go forth
Morning, noon and night
Til you as an angel knock on my door

I am sorry for the times I made you sad
But one thing I do want to say
Is that you are the best mom I ever had.

The clock
Veronica clark Oct 2018
"The clock"

What is time?
A marker?
What do we know of it
What did we find?
Did we find "the path"?

The world is the pendulum
Around around its sway
The son is the face
That marks times way

We may seem the center
But rest assured we are not
We are the epicenter
That time has forgot

We have watched, clocks, light years
That marks our hours
But here in this time
The sun keeps the hour


Yet here we are with solar panels noticing its power.

Have you ever wondered?
Veronica clark Oct 2018
Have you ever wondered
Have you ever thought
Have you ever pondered the words we were taught?

Throught life we were said
Each person indifferent
Some begged some pled
Others challenge notions instead

I am one of those
That is who I am
Seeing is not always believing
With my heart not my eyes I chose

I am not for the faint of heart
My life has done full circle
I see what others block out
In all colors..not just red , blue or purple

So, have you..have you
Ever wondered or pondered
I have ,I have
Pondered then wondered..

So now I write..
Not with my eyes, but my heart
Because in my life
It seemed the greatest place to start!
I am 38 with heart failure. But here in my words it never fails. It is whole!

— The End —
