(Note: This poem is a template. You can personalize it by substituting specific details about your mother, her personality, and your shared memories.)
The flowers weep a silent tear, Upon the earth, so soft and near. A gentle breeze begins to sigh, As loved ones gather, saying goodbye.
(Verse 1: Reflect on her character)
Your laughter bright, a sunlit day,
Chasing shadows far away.
Your kindness shown, a gentle hand,
Leaving love throughout the land.
A heart so pure, a spirit free,
Now rests in peace, eternally.
(Example: Replace with specific details, such as: "Your love for baking, warm and sweet, / A fragrant memory, we'll never meet..." or "Your passion for gardening, bright and bold, / A vibrant legacy, forever told.")
(Verse 2: Recall a cherished memory)
I see your smile, I hear your voice,
In memories cherished, I rejoice.
(Example: Replace with a specific memory, such as: "Remember picnics in the summer sun, / Or evenings spent when day was done, / With stories shared and laughter's sound, / On happy ground, on hallowed ground.")
The warmth you gave, a shining light,
Guiding me through darkest night.
(Verse 3: Express your grief and acceptance)
Though grief may weigh upon our hearts, And tears may fall, a world departs, Your love remains, a constant guide, Within our souls, where you reside.
(Verse 4: Look towards the future)
We'll carry on, with strength and grace, Remembering the love you embraced. Your spirit lives, in all we do, A legacy of love, forever true.
(Concluding lines: Personalize these)
Rest peacefully, dear Mum, until we meet again. Your memory a blessing, a comforting refrain.
(Optional: Add a final line mentioning a specific detail you'll always remember about your mother, e.g., "Your favourite song, forever in our hearts.")
