Adieu

Howl fir tree, the cedar is fallen 

From this narrow lane of time,

from this uncertain strait and burdens

from these enclaves of wearying vanity fair,

from this time bound journeying among mortals, 

from its temporal “Joys” and many sorrows, 

from pain of fickle frame, 

from the cheers and Jeers, 

from time to time innumerable,

from mortality to immortality, 

from Death to Life beyond. 

this Jordan in-between, 

here i mourn before my time, 
  
but in Hope beyond the grave, 

Through the everlasting covenant,  

Left with your memories,

Rest Maami,  

Adieu. 


Dedicated to the priceless gift of providence.
The Best Mother to walk this earth.
