At My Mother’s Grave

Here lies the one who carried me within her;
here lies the one who cradled me in her arms, so tender.
The one who taught me to seek Perfection,
to tread the righteous path, to keep living,
though Life may bring naught but destruction.
Here lies a beauty, a dreamer, an achiever.
Here lies she who left me a life-long griever.

Here lies a diamond, finally out of the rough, free to shine from every multi dimensional facet.

Here lies a woman like no other;
here lies my dear Mother.
