GODINEZ -- Helen Helen Armijo Godinez April 29, 1933-April 14, 2004 Mom, As I sat watching by your bed A million thoughts ran through my head. Of just how much were you aware? Did you know that I was there? Could you feel the love I sent, In whispered word, Or prayer bent? Upon my cross as I asked God, To spare your life for my selfish cause? So that I could tell you just once more, "I love you Mom!" as I had before. And we could chat like days of old, Over cans of Sprite rimmed with gold. And laugh and joke, or just to share some small hurt and perhaps a tear. To talk of the past, or things yet to do. To sniffle, and sneeze, and say "Bless You!" All these dreams now hang in shreds, As I sit here with bowed down head. And ponder on these sad thoughts. Just to wonder, "Was it all for naught?" It's been two years that you have been gone, "I Love and Miss You!" Your Daughter, Frieda Maldonado
