Dearest Amma,
Three whole months have gone by
Since you bade us good bye
Every single of those days
You’ve constantly been on my mind
Life is strange
We come, make bonds
And then when the bonds are strong
One departs, leaving others astray
Life wasn’t a bed of roses,
You went through tough times
But you always rose
Stronger than before
So many events flash through my mind
Too numerous to put to pen and paper
But each one of those
Gave me the strength to be who I am.
It is time to reflect
All the good times
And offer thanks
To a memorable life
With fond memories
