Seeds Taking Fruit

For my beloved mom.
This poem is very emotional for me so pls do not rate this poem as well should not be considered for crowning

Eight years since you left us behind
Silent tears roll by as we remember
Reliving the anguish that you went through
Helpless we stood watching you valiantly suffer
Your soul finally getting the release
From all the pain and the miseries
Taking flight to an eternal world

I am sure you are watching over us
With your hands spread wide to bless your tree
You are still throbbing in us
Seeds of strength, principles and passion planted in the three
That have taken fruit
Being passed to your grandchildren
And my daughter that you could never see

A beautiful tribute to your mother Renu…God bless her soul… yes losing a parent is probably one of the most painful moments of one’s life and does change things for ever…and your are right… they do eternally watch over their loved ones and guide us at every step in their own way…

They don’t remain in the world but their presence is felt even stronger and this strengthens us even more….

I don’t know what to say….
Memories remain but time slowly heals us all and gives us the strength to come to terms with our loss.
Beautiful write Renuji!!!!

A nice emotional one remembering
one’s mother. I agree with Seema
as I know the personal loss of my own
mother.

Yes, no body like a parent. The void left behind remains like that, and sometimes, you don’t know where to reach out. It’s beautiful!
