Mum

Mum, the one we knew and loved,

Mum knew us all and loved us all.

Where now is all that love?

Where now her smile? Where now her frown?

Though tears may fall like raindrops, and hearts are filled with sorrow,

We find solace in the memories, in each bright tomorrow.

So let us hold dear to the moments we shared,

The laughter, the love, the burdens we bared.

Though life’s journey now has ended, and she bid us farewell,

Her spirit lives within us, and the stories we’ll tell.

So let us find comfort in the bonds that never sever,

For love transcends all boundaries and lasts forever.

And though our hearts may ache, and our souls may grieve,

Mum’s spirit lives on, in the memories we weave.

Rest in Peace Mum
