Maternal Remembrance


I saw a familiar ghost today
I always recognize you
You know where to stand
To catch my eye, remind me
Honour maternal memories
Till daylight comes and I miss you
Before I sleep and shadow parts us
Always
And how bitter a life
Would I have lived?
To have never again thought of you
You need not remind me again
For I never stopped thinking of you
But it comforts me to know
You never really left
And you wait so patiently
For us to drift back home
One by one
And all be reunited again
