There was that time she told me to be patient that she's got me
I stood from afar while she reached her arms to me
There was that warmth, that friendliness...deeply inviting
There was no denying the truth that it was enticing
Around her arms she wrapped me with a pat on my back and I felt peace
Peace that is as deep as the ocean...so calmly refreshing
Just the assurance and the ease that I sought my whole life
She said it, kept to her words - she acted what she said
Like a virtuous mother in the Bible...she arose and gave ease
A mother and more...she broke every wall of pain and gave joy
She had a heart of gold...full of strength and energy
Love was her driving force which was why she rarely gets tired
She won't only show you how and where to walk but walk with you
Pushing you to be the best of yourself you can be without altering you
Her ways are pure, blessed and encouraging
She is not just anyone but a wonder wonder woman I can call mother
She's gone from the face of the earth but her influence stays
Happy post-humous birthday to you, mama. Your influence still spread like fragrance even though you are no more. Everyone still speak glowingly about what a blessing you are to g singing with the angels.
It's hard to know you are no longer with us and it has been two year now. It still feels like yesterday and it's as though you are still with us. I feel your presence daily and I know most people do. Thank you for being the best mother in law anyone could wish for. We all miss you.
Thank you for your time.
My pen doesn't bleed, it speaks, with speed and ease.
Still me,
My tongue is like the pen of a ready writer.
