Homage to my mother

Homage to my mother

 

mother

you’ve been dead

and gone now

for quite so long

or so it seems

 

but still you are here with me

in me

in all those qualities and values

you instilled

by being you

 

your humble nature and your care

your serving others

never putting yourself first

 

your empathy

your healing touch

your good will 

 

i know i didn’t always appreciate your unconditional love for me

i know i have not been there for you

the same as you were there for me

always

 

i am sorry about that

 

but then, in the end

i am happy we could share this special time

and a peaceful goodbye

 

 

thank you mother

 

so long

sayonara

gracias

 

i am sure i’ll see you again

sometime

somewhere
