Mothers Day May 8th 2022
It is now seven and
a half years since
You passed,
In my Au revoir poem to you
I asked,
Why did we have to argue
After dad died,
Between you and I things
Became sticky,
A Patriarch’s role you adopted,
You took it on quite sternly,
For quite some time,
So sad, as things became bad.
But I forgave you and
Elias did too,
From the bottom of our hearts,
I hope you can hear me mum,
Those few years
forgotten, and we have begun a
Fresh start, I felt God wanted me
To do what was right
And to only remember your
Loving nature and
How humble you became
Once again.
Emotionally I know how much
You endured,
I looked up and said
Thank-you.
There was and will never
Be another you,
You would laugh with me on
Happy Days and cry with me on sad
Like at the moment my dad died,
And hugging together we cried.
I hope you know
What I’m writing today,
No more tears, they were erased
And carried away,
On Angels wings
And I only remember how caring,
How sensitive and loving you were
And see you flickering among
The stars in the Milky Way,
Happy Mothers Day
Darling Mummy
I feel so much better,
Butterflies are twirling in my tummy
And my soul is flying,
My heart soaring,
Your gentle ways I remember,
Your tenderness now a beacon,
In my future life,
As I live happily with my husband
As his wife.
