The Decision

by Joy Curnutt

Thanks, Mom, for your decision,
I'm really proud of you.
For you did something wonderful,
You knew I'd want you to.

We come to this earth to show love,
And to give as much as we can.
You made the decision to give part of me,
Knowing I'd help my fellow man.

I know that sometimes there's still sadness,
And you really miss seeing me.
Know that I'm always with you,
Just not physically.

You wear the green ribbon pin proudly,
And love for someone to ask.
To tell them your son was a donor
Is part of your work and task.

Mom, where I am now is wonderful,
It's beautiful, I don't have a care.
Remember, don't take your organs and tissue to heaven,
Cause we don't need them there.
