His Mommy Died Today - The Loss of a Mother
His Mommy Died Today
(Please Answer Your Cell Phone Mommy)
The poem below, "His Mommy Died Today", written by me, is based on true story. Although I didn't personally know this beautiful boy, I was told of this eleven year old's pain over his mother's death. He kept calling his mother's cell phone, after she died, just so he could hear her voice. They eventually had to take the phone from him.
This was years ago, but I must say, as a mom of four boys, this little boy and his broken heart is a part of me now. To this little boy, probably a man now, I know it is safe to say, "you are loved". God bless.
Listen to An Original Song, Called I Am My Mothers Daughter. I wrote this song for my mother, and wish love & peace between you and your mom. "It's really a dedication, celebrating all Moms"

Best Pick "Loss of Mom" Songs
My Personal Picks
Goodbye, by Celine Dion: This video presentation to Celine Dion's song "Goodbye" is gut wrenching. I just couldn't hold back the tears, while watching and listening to this. My heart hurt for song, it just broke open.
The Rose, by Westlife: If you haven't heard this song, you have to listen to it. This is a cover song of Bette Midler's original version and it's breathtaking. This famous group is exceptionally talented, and they do a fantastic job with this song. The video presentation is done with a man and woman's loss and re-birth of love, however these words are also very suitable for a dedication to the passing of a mom.
You Raise Me Up, by Westlife: Absolute goose bumps traveling up and down your whole body when you listen to this! It's another cover song, of Josh Groban's original version, and it's, "fall off the couch beautiful". Amazing.
One More Day, by Diamond Rio: The lyrics to this song are powerful as they talk about having just one more day with the person you love. It hurts to hear it, especially when you think that right now in this world there are a lot of people wishing for this very thing.
This Is Your Song, by Ronan Keating: This song was written for his mother. It's incredibly moving. I found it on youtube quite by accident. It's so beautiful that I can't express it in words. It's simple, but the words along with the video tell a beautiful story of a mother and son.
The House that Built Me by Miranda Lambert
She speaks about going home to the house she was raised in, that her father built for the family. This song brings me home to the house my parents built. They still own the home, and I'm fortunate that I still get to go home and sleep in my bedroom, but I know someday, possibly someday soon, the house will be sold, and it hurts to think about it.
I just can't imagine doing what the lyrics say in this song...knocking on the door and asking to go through the house to "take a memory"...hurts to even say it.
Yes, I'm all grown up, and yes many of my kids are grown, but we still go home to mom and dad's and for the brief time I'm there, my heart rests easy. Truly can't get through this song without crying.

His Mommy Died Today
A Poem Based on a True Story

"In Truth There is Love", by Elvira Amrhein
His Mommy Died Today
(Please Answer Your Cell Phone Mommy)
Written by Barbara Tremblay Cipak, Copyright
His heart is crying, he's so very young,
He doesn't know what a dagger looks like
yet he feels one deep inside his stomach
He cries, his mommy died today,
please answer your cell phone mommy
His breaths are taken between heaving sobs
He's never seen a raging fire,
yet he feels one consuming his spirit
Please answer your cell phone mommy
He's her baby, he needs to hear her everyday
He keeps calling her cell phone number
for that promise made in her voice,
the voice he needs to hear,
Believing the truth as spoken,
that she's just stepped out for a minute,
and she'll call right back
If he could trade all eleven of his birthday wishes for one
he would ask that just this call be answered,
so he could hear,"Hi son, love ya so much sweetie,
I'll be home shortly",but his mommy died today,
So he goes to bed tonight, grasping her cell phone,
as it rests,as she did, on his pillow,
he gazes at the voice trapped inside
knowing it to be the last hug his mommy will give him
Her precious little boy curls up and cries out for her,
only her....

- An excellent lens, you are right I need the Kleenex for this one. I love your original song - I hope you put it on youtube as well so it gets more wings. Thanks for the "Touched by an Angel" clip, I had forgotten that series. My mother passed several years ago, but I feel her strong soul with me frequently. My son says he doesn't believe in life after death, I think a time will come when he KNOWS because I will be with him after I leave this Earth plane. Dusted by Squid Angel wings!
