Before-word: I wrote this piece as a tribute to the life of a dear dear friend (may her soul Rest In Peace). There was so much to say about this beautiful life, sharing it here in phases, this is phase 1.
Remember Me As Mother
I am the gene
The heredity transferred from me to you
My offspring, the child of my heart
You who redefined me
Elevated me to the status of “mother”
For you I lived
I live on in you
Each heartbeat of yours is mine
As you chart your life path
See your way through my eyes
Listen for me in your heart
Live … laugh … love out loud my child, my gene
I am alive in you
REMEMBER ME
