Happy Mother's Day

I purposely made the picture grey
It was taken during my graduation day
Mama was there, she came all the way
Happy she was, like a chirpy blue jay


I remember the time when I was in dismay
Something trivial, I was writing an essay
“Just do your best, son”, calmly she would say
And all my anxiety and worries went away


Mama’s far away now, I’m sad to say
I think of you mama, every single day
So the picture above, I put on display
For the love for my mama, I wish to convey



Happy Mother’s Day* Mama

*Mother's Day is celebrated this year (2005) on 6th March in the UK, but not until May in the US and Malaysia.
