Its another evening, dark and thundery The clouds seem daunting loud and roaring I feel I hear my name in the silence must be my mom , definitely she is calling

We had so many arguments and more undone So much to learn from each other always With her composure, calm and cool yes she could get angry on some days

Her voice is a far-etched hollow in my ears I hear her calling my name in my sleep She was an enigma, a rarity always She will always remain a mystery so deep

She and I disagreed on parenting too I would tell her , her methods are old but then would realize my folly! Hey she is my mom yes she has learnt the hard way from stories untold.

Ammi missed her mom, a lady gone too early I was 2 months old and my mom was just 23 then She hardly spent the time with grandma the way I did with her but our memories are what stay eternally golden

Each night I ask for her like I did as a child I never really grew up ammi though I have my 3 girls I came back to you in the middle of the nights You knew how to calm me amongst my swirls

Each second of each day I ask God to keep you safe in heaven I know you are watching me with your love from above its been three months since you breathed your last in my arms Come back ammi, I want to tell you how much you are loved
