A SINGLE TEAR DROP
by Joyce W. Ivy
A single tear drop rolled down his cheek,
as he remembered her sweet embrace.
To know he would never feel her again,
nor see her smiling face.
His heart war-torn and weary
he tries to fill his days.
As a single tear drop rolls down his cheek,
just knowing she's gone so far away.
He sits and stares for hours,
just remembering all their days.
The many years of love they shared,
gone that September day.
For the Lord sent his angels
to take my mother away.
I know when he joins her,
that single tear drop I will see
is from the joy of being reunited,
with the only true Love he needs.
