A beautiful poem expressing your loss. The best part is in the last stanza.:

So, at the gates of heaven,
You will be there to greet me.

In a word, hope. That keeps each day moving forward with something to look forward to! Thanks so much for sharing. Julie

What a beautifully sentimental poem. I'm sure she'll be waiting. I extend my sympathies to you and next time I'm on my knees, I'll offer one for both you and for the one you miss.

I felt the sorrow here and grief with the loss of a loved one. We never stop missing someone, but we learn to live without them over time. A touching poem, love Dolly x x x

Thank you for taking the time to read and comment on this. I appreciate it. I am learning to live without my mom but it is hard.
Hope you have a good day.

This is such an emotional, heartfelt poem that anyone who has ever lost a loved one can relate to. You added a bit of humor with 'skinny dipping,' but the message remains, "I will always miss you." Well done.

My heart is very touched by your lovely poem. I know how you feel. I miss my husband as well. He was always a strong one in our family and he left me so long ago and yet God seems to have a purpose for me here on earth. I can hardly wait for the day when I will meet him at the Golden Gate and he will Guide me through heaven. Patricia .

What a beautiful tribute to that special someone that you have lost.

This stanza needs a little attention to grammar:

I am trying to be strong,
to do all that i must do.
but not a goes by
That I don't think of you.
I miss you!

I think someone mourning a recent loss may find great comfort in your piece.
