For
My Mum
I miss you mum.
Now
you're gone but not forgotten.
I
was half a world away with my wife Carole, happy, married and in love.
Carole has your
approval:
"Welcome
to the family."
Your
words have gravity.
My
wife took your death badly.
You
gone, not to meet her.
We're
there for each other.
I
left my new home - Marikina, to fly to my old home - deprived Oldham.
As I look at
your room, sort out your jewellry, I think,
"You're
gone now but not forgotten."
We
didn't see eye to eye on some things but that didn't matter.
What
mattered was love, being a family and years together.
I
won't forget you, my mum.
