This mum of mine,
Such a beautiful soul.
Her love was unconditional.
She gave me roots and wings
And made me what I am today.
My mum adored flowers.
On her birthday
Three years ago in June,
The first year without her
In this physical world,
I visited a flower market in London.
I was looking for something special
To commemorate her beautiful spirit.
The choice was overwhelming.
And yet,
As I stood still for a few moments,
Suddenly, right beside me
A magnificent bumblebee
Landed on a small rose plant.
And I knew this was the one.
I carried her home,
Placed her on my balcony,
And since then,
Every year in June
She blossoms,
And the scent is exquisite.
Thank you, Mummy,
For you.
You are flying with the angels,
But I still feel you with me
Every day,
Without fail.
Because of you,
I will never be alone.
