Dear Mummy

Dear Mummy, 

It’s our favourite time of the year,

But there is no holiday cheer. 

You said your heaven is with us near, 

Then why aren’t you here? 

Dear Mummy, 

The world knows you left. 

Many came to pay their last respect.

You laid so gorgeous with life bereft 

Our emotions heavy on the chest. 

Dear Mummy, 

They say time heals.

I still ponder how that feels. 

Does God consider any appeals? 

To get you back and save us from life ordeals. 

Dear Mummy, 

You loved holidays, a lot more to see. 

It was too soon for you to flee. 

Don’t I know you can hear me plea,

And watch your home so empty. 

Dear Mummy, 

If only I had a choice,

To hear again your voice. 

Fix all our broken points,

Yet again to revel and rejoice.

Dear Mummy, 

We miss you and your beautiful smile.

Unknowingly was a part of our lifestyle,

Just made everything worthwhile,

Now we can’t do without it even for a mile. 

Dear Mummy, 

Though difficult to overcome grief,

Aid is, from pain you found relief. 

Your journey was valuable but so brief 

Agrees your people, every flower, every leaf. 

Dear Mummy, 

You were my greatest teacher. 

You were my biggest supporter. 

You were my ultimate problem solver. 

You were my best cheerleader. 

You were my foremost admirer. 

You were the strongest warrior. 

My wonder woman 

My Mummy
