Mahal Kita, Mommasita! ! (For Mother's Day) Comments

I know that the very first day that your mother saw you in person, she just held us so tightly... she didn't want to let you go, and time stood still. She always had a perfect day and she knew it could only get better and better if she only stood by your side, held, kissed and hugged. I know that after that moment you never went through a day without saying how much you love her and need her the rest of our life. So strong & so much string attached. Nicely penned! Mahal na Mahal ni Mommasita gaya ng pagmamahal mo sa kanya! A Great tribute to your Mother.

Lee, i can also relate to this.. I lost my mother 10 months ago, and it pains me that i was not at her bedside when she breathe her last.Right now, am still in pain, losing her..Mahal na mahal ko rin siya..What a beautiful tribute you have made to your Mom..I was in tears reading this..take care.. mahal kita, Meggie

I almost cried reading your poem. My mother died seven years ago and until now I can't talk about her without crying. You wrote such vivid images I could actually see you sitting by her bedside. It is the pain we go through in life that makes us write with so much intensity. I won't forget this poem.

this is one of the most beautiful poems i've ever seen. 'If I could take back time...' just one of the endless list of 'if onlys' that accompanies such an event. Leaves a chasm of longing in my gut. '...I must be dreaming...' that wishful thinking in the face of harsh, unfair reality. '..if I felt the presence of you...' that enduring gift that a loving parent leaves behind. This is so heartfelt and inspired. Brings back memories of what i was thinking when my dad was slipping away. Very nice work.

beautiful expressions of love for a great mom..' I was there every minute Just to look at you and sit by your side And hold your hand when the pain hits..' so real from the heart..great write.

a great piece here too bad it’s from your own experience. The flow & thoughts all just melt together you can’t ask for anything better sorry for your lost mike.......

Dear Lee This may sound strange, but I had an extraordinary feeling of peace at the end of this one, and guess what, the sun has just come out.... Take care my friend Love duncan X

...this must have been very difficult to write Lee, my admiration and respect for a fine work. Warmly and fondly, Jerry

I love you Lee. Awesome poem.
