7 Months today world. I miss her terribly so, more than ever...because I know that if she were around, I'd have a safe haven. Karma could chuck at me whatever she wanted, and my mother could give me the evil eye for as long as she wanted, but all I had to do was go to my Grandmother and she'd make me a cup of hot something, and fresh carrot and pecan muffins, and sit around telling me old stories of yesteryear...and everything would seem all that much less difficult. I miss her so much. I miss her so much that it's a physical ache.
The rainbow comes and goes,
And lovely is the rose;
The moon doth with delight
Look round her when the heavens are bare;
Waters on a starry night
Are beautiful and fair;
The sunshine is a glorious birth;
But yet I know, where'er I go,
That there hath past away a glory from the earth.
-Ode on Intimations of Immortality from Recollections of Early Childhood
William Wordsworth-
I miss her too..
ReplyDeleteI regret not spending more time with her..
I do have my rose plant though..
Junaid bought me rose plant for our First wedding anniversary.. and the 1st person I phoned was Fowzia Apa.. to get all the tips and tricks on how to take care of this beautiful gift. Who better to call than the lady with the lady with green fingers and beautiful rose garden..
She was so happy that I was so excited about the plant. and she was rather honoured :) She made a dua that morning.. She said "May your marriage grow and flourish just like a beautiful rose" I'll never forget that...
That plant is now called Rosy Fozie :)
Love you,
