Remembering Mother

I am thinking of visiting my mother's grave. As morbid as it sounds, I have really made up my mind to do so and to place a wreath on top of it. Day by day I am accepting the fact that she is really gone, but with an unwavering faith that I will see her again. I am still reminiscing the days we spent laughing and talking about every subject that you can think about. She was a tower of strength to me. My mother was always the one, when in our crisis, to say, "my child, God will provide." This I constantly heard while she took care of five children who had lost their father. In my mind's eye I still see her infectious smile, which was her trademark.
She always displayed a smile even in the most troublesome times. My confidant, my bona fide, my heroine, my mother, I love you and will always miss you.

How Much I Love You I Can't Say

How much I love you I can't say:
It's more than words can hold.
You're all at once my rich, red clay,
My potter and my mold.

Yours the words that shaped my voice,
The spirit within mine.
Yours the will that shaped my choice,
My fortune, and my sign.

How lucky I was to have had you
At the core of me!
Wise and good, you always knew
Just what I could be.

And so I came to be someone
Whom I could be proud of.
For this I give my swollen sum
Of gratitude and love.
