Always With You

Rest in peace. People gather around to pay homage. Every one gets busy! I feel the soul’s craving for solace. Probably the last few minutes, the most precious moments, when the soul can say “Good Bye!”.
I curiously asked mom, “what would you do, after you die?"
To this she replied:

Don’t mourn, when I die,
If you feel that we had a strong tie.

I promise you, 
I’ll be with you, throughout your life.
My love! My daughter! you are my part,
How will I depart?

And yes! My parents will miss me the most.
So, I would rather prefer to be a ghost.

I’ll be with my parents too.
I’ll look after them well,
that's my vow!

I will wake you up every morning.
Together we all will go for jogging.

When dad, would be in some urgent meeting,
I will sit in his lap and still won’t be seen!
I know, I am his life.
I’ll also prove that, I am a perfect wife!

I would fly up in the sky,
I would dive down into the sea,
Without any hue and cry!

On the snow and in the rain.
May be! It might be another gain.

There is lots more to say.
But, let’s wait for the day!

When I die,
There should be no sigh.
Else, I will also cry!

I know she is right; she will always be with you. I think people would grieve less if they could feel and believe this.
