A Poem for My Late Mother
Stella Jean Pikiel Neafcy Webb Labat!

Happy Mothers Day !

Time stands still and the earth spins around with memories of You, Your soft touch and gentle ways fills my memories with whispers of contentment! You gave me birth and I so in tune with You still I feel you in my heart, I see your smile in my dreams and witness you gliding in the streams! Your love for me I feel with every step I take, every beat of my heart is in tune to all the precious moments of You Life! Mom Your are with the Lord and sleep in the softness of clouds and Your guidance so real! I hold this Mothers Day and all that will come up to You with the Love full of rainbows and colors so powerful and true I give these Mothers days with my heart held up to You! My Life is still full for You live within my soul and Your Touch still warms my thoughts I will forever keep Your Candle lite and Your burning Desire to see me succeed will keep my days full of sunshine and when my head hit the pillow at night lullabies fill my room as I close my eyes! Rest My Mother and relax in the thought that You have given me Flight! I love You!


Mother's Day 1998

The time seeps through and the glass full of alcohol is a memory as the expecting Mother to be lays Her head on the pillow! The unborn miracle inside "Gods child" is being slowly taken to a place of no return, a place that will forever be a forgotten and can never be brought back! The only way this could have been prevented is if that glass was filled with Milk instead of Alcohol, with a place of no return in this Precious childs future the world is like a place full of Detours and dead ends! Nobody wants to be around a child that is has been lost in a place of no return, unless You understand this special little one as just that! Like sand Through a Hour Glass so is Alcohol to the Fetus! Be a friend to Your unborn and leave that alcohol in the store and give your Baby a fighting chance to make it in this world of ours!
