Accepting the grief
Never thought it could happen
Beautiful Mourning
In my heart always
You'll always be my mother
No matter how long
It's been a while
since I've felt an acceptance
that allows my heart
To complete access
physically you're gone, I know
never forgotten
I see you in her
in her smile and in her eyes
My daughter and you
Both envelope me
In love and joy never lost
no matter how long.

How beautiful. I love your haiku and your tribute. Very touching.
ReplyDeleteThis really touched my heart. Just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHow fortunate you are to have a daughter to have our own wonderful mother/daughter relationship as you did with your mom.
Beautiful!
That is so touching. Nicely written.
ReplyDeleteI got chills as I stared at your beautiful mom's photo.
ReplyDeleteI believe it's impossible to get to a point where you are ever "right" with losing someone you love so much but the pain can certainly be eased. I love that you've found that "beautiful mourning" place.
I'd like to think that your Mom and my Dad are hanging , keeping one another company ...and chatting about their amazingly strong kids ;)
Aw. So sweet.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you are continuing this newfound acceptance; it must be like a huge weight lifted off your shoulders and from your heart.

You are magnificent ... absolutely.
