In memory of my beloved Mother

In memory of my beloved Mother,
Mdm Tan Phuah Eng ……

Sadly missed along life's way,

Quietly remembered every day,

No longer in my life to share,

But in my heart she's always there.

My heart still aches in sadness,

My silent tears still flow,

For what it meant to lose you,

Mother, No one will ever know.

The tears in my eyes I can wipe away,

The ache in my heart will always stay.

Always a smile instead of a frown,

Always a hand when one is down,

Always true, thoughtful and kind,

Wonderful memories she left behind.

No farewell words were spoken,

No time to say goodbye,

You were gone before I knew it,

And only God can tell me why.

It broke my heart to lose you,

But you didn't go alone,

For part of me went with you,

The day God called you home.

Peacefully sleeping, resting at last,

Her weary trials and troubles past,

In silence she suffered, in patience she bore,

Till God called her home to suffer no more.

Always willing to help others,

When herself should be at rest,

She was the kindest of all Mothers,

Now amongst the Heavenly blest.

Keep her Jesus, in Thy keeping,

Until I reach that golden shore,

Then dear Saviour let me have her,

And love her as I did before.

In all the world I shall not find,

A heart so wonderfully kind,

So soft a voice, so sweet a smile,

Inspiration worthwhile;

A sympathy so sure so deep,

A love so beautiful to keep.

Mother, if I could have one lifetime wish (just one wish and one that can really come true), I ask with all my heart for yesterday and you. I miss you and how I wish I can tell you how much I love you! Until the final breath I take, you will be living in my heart.

December 28th, 2009 is remembered and quietly kept. No words are needed and I shall not forget. Although you are now unseen and unheard, you are always so near, so loved, so missed and so very dear.

I love you Mother!

I missed you so much, Mother!
