Remembering Mom I thought she'd stay with me for long Even if she didn't in my heart she'll always belong We didn't bond as much she being soft spoken There is much to say about her am truly beholden. Her words are few her taste so simple When she's angry in silence she'd struggle She took care of my when am away How she handled their riot she wouldn't convey. On mornings her preparations for breakfast Plates with a pair of bread buns milk in each glass A hotdog a peeled hard boiled egg for the This daily ritual became our constant regiment. She’d give my their everyday “baon” to school Cash or some packed food in each of their lunchbox She’d pay more attention to the youngest of my brood I remember Simon wouldn’t budge without his two bucks. Her passing was too sudden efforts to revive all in vain Told to go home by her cardio to observe her chest pain While resting she blurted a snore my Dad saw her pallid She was rushed to ER but she had already gone like a thief. She taught me how to identify fishes sold in the market How to dress a chicken then to cook tasty beef brisket Missing the way she’d cook local veggies it’s sumptuous I got her crocheting skill which made me so arduous. Her perseverance is her virtue my best admiration She stays at home never indulgences on frivolity You buy her what’s extravagant she’s not happy But to market she loves going to buy our ration. A typical housewife she’d also do the gardens We had plenty of daisies and bougainvilleas. She converted light curtains as my house clothes Nothing is wasted she’s very fond of recycling. Those are my memories of Mom whose photos I lost She was once a carnival queen according to one cuz A meek person you hardly hear her ever talking loud Never argumentative when pissed she’s just quiet.

It's been more than 2 years now since I last saw my Mom. I would have gone on vacation last April of 2020, but then Covid came as a pandemic, and all the family plans were shelved. I miss my mom. She does not even remember me anymore being that she is now suffering from dementia. I just wish things will be back to normal, so that we can all be reunited. ELZ
