No love like a mothers love

No love like a mothers love

I sit with my son on the carpeted floor,
Marvel at his face for what went before,
I nearly lost him was so close,
Heart failure from an overdose,
Nothing prepares you for this
No goodbye no last kiss,
To have him taken from me so quickly,
But his will for life was strong
Hes so very sorry for his wrong,
I dont care about what ifs or maybes,
I hold him tight in my arms,
As i did with all my brood as babies,
My words said quiet and calmly Against my sons ear,
He leans in....
'you ever scare me like that again, ill kill you!'

Hi tony, thankyou for your kind words, yes it was a very surreal time and fortunately I still have my son with me driving me nuts, wouldn't have it any other way though... Ive just read some of your work and your use of the english language is excellent, I am a mere amatuer in truth, but enjoy writing very much.. My writing basic in text and thinking but this is me.. :)
