(A lone voice whispers)
Lost in deep thoughts
Of my beloved mother
Sadness always
Suddenly appears
Whenever I see
Our old favourite photographs
Of childhood
Together
Causing me to savour
The subtle taste
Of salty tears
For
Grief and memories are forever interlinked
It just sometimes depends on how old you are
For these words
To truly sink in
