Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

Out of her anguish
out of her pain
a mother’s voice rising
determined, resolute
making a promise to him

Joy of her life
her only son
gone far too soon
work to do on this earth
before they will meet again

A son and two daughters
pledging her loving care
errands to do
before she may rest
into his arms again
