Memories Of You Part 2

Prologue: To the Child
----------------------------
If I could paint a picture of you
I'd paint your eyes a shade of blue
You're smile the smile I always see
This beautiful picture just for me

Would hang on my wall for all to see
Because you are so special to me
When I see this beautiful picture on the wall
I can see the most beautiful face of all

Since you have entered my life there's no going back
Thousands of memories keep flooding back
You left your life before I lost mine
Memories of you are no longer set in a shrine

You are my Mother

Memory Tea

I watched that crimson colour brew, Becoming rusty, reminding me of you... Of your last words, on your last breath. Before you left me, and went with death. But I pull myself from that dark scene.

My mother died in 2005 although I lost her to dementia before that. I appreciate her more now than I did when she was alive. 🙍
