My Mother Walks Softly

In the corridor of my soul
My mother walks softly there
I smell L’ Air Du Temps
And feel the way she cared

Missing her light steps
Coming down the autumn path
All the leaves rustling
Making me miss the past

Her ashes, all that’s left
To hold in my arms
Longing for her hugs
Oh, how she was warm

This is so sad and Beautifuly expressed. I know she is smiling down on you. It is nice that she visits the corridors of your soul.
