Poem
Mum, sorry I was not able to make it for your funeral in time. We are continents apart and circumstances could not permit me to bid you farewell. Allow me to write you this poem today. The pain of separation still kills me. Oh mother of mine, I love you dearly, you are the priceless pearl. If you dive deep within the ocean, you can never find, the original, like you. Your beautiful smile, your loving heart I know God carefully selected you, to be my mother. What can a daughter say to such a rare gift. The priceless masterpiece of God’s greatest treasure. A perfect soul indeed, I can only thank the Lord. When my heart speaks with thee, Only the heart speaks the language of love. I miss combing your hair, coming home after school and seeing you sitting on the porch. I miss bringing you, your favorite flowers, the african violet. I miss watching you the flowers toil and spin, as they are caressed with the kisses of the wind. I miss watching you water the flowers and nurture it with so much love. One day, for sure, when I take a stroll along heaven’s pathway, I will see the violet flowers and know for sure by the lavenders fragrance, I will find you. Oh mother, I had dream about you one night, Wandering where are you. I fell in a deep sleep and suddenly, I felt myself in this beautiful place. Lit with many candles, it was indescribable with beauty. I saw you, lay on this white stone, Covered in white clothes, was God telling me, you are in his hands. God’s reply was to me: Everything is fine my child, Your mum is in my hands now, When you were her earthly daughter, I know you did your best. Now you have a chance to say goodbye. It goes like this mum, Goodbye my friend, my mum Someday we’ll meet in heaven again. Your are masterpiece of a priceless treasure. God prepared a place for you. I know it was not enough, to bid my farewell, over the phone while you lay in your casket, to say goodbye. But now it is my only chance to write to you, my farewell poem Goodbye for now. We’ll meet in eternity one day. Your Child
