A Tribute To My Mother

Some instances 
Her beautiful face is covered
With a governing growl as a mask 
over us,
our sickness or defeat makes
her heart melts and tears roll down her face before ours,
Love, care, trust, and cleanliness were the key factors
In her syllabus for us,
We were kids and it felt like we were in a boarding house at times
At later ages, we realized it was the basis for our future
It’s too late to appreciate all of her dedication to us
Mom’s love was unconditional and divine
She was the living goddess of our lives
Our mom will live in the deepest place in our hearts
Until we depart.
