A Tribute to Mom's Memory (Guest Poetry by Colin Morais)

I am sharing the following poem, In Loving Memory of Mom,by guest blogger and my brother, Colin Morais.

In Loving Memory of Mom

Mother Mother how is heaven

I ask of you today

Is it flowing with milk and honey

as you told me yesteryear?

Mother, mother how is heaven

Did friends come out to greet

with beautiful flowers and silken robes

and songs sung so sweet?

Mother, mother how is heaven

Do you have windows there

where you can peep from time to time

and see us all down here?

Mother, mother how is heaven

Did God make you a Saint

For all the good you've done?

He shouldn't say 'I can't'.

Mother, mother how is heaven

Is Jesus by His side?

Does he still look the same today

as when I was a child?

Mother, mother how is heaven

Am I a welcomed guest?

Are my sins aplenty

and Hell my place to rest?
