In the Dream my Mother Smiles to

When I think of you

In that night, the moon smiles to me

Oh,my mother

How are you in heaven?

I miss you so much

I look back on my life

Dreams give me an imagination

They open my mind, let my fantasies unwind

Some are true, some are never coming true

Also, the fancy dreams make me smile

In my dream, you talk to me

But when I wake up, you are gone

The last time I saw her was in the hospital

I ran back to my hometown

She was seriously ill

Unfortunately, her cancer was out control

I cried, my mother smiled at me and said,

“Don’t worry about me, I will be fine.”

My mother knew death was coming soon

She tried to make me comfortable and understand

I was only in my hometown a week,

Then I flew back to my work place

Before leaving, I told my mom ,

I will definitely come back to see you in the summer.

She said: “I will be here waiting for you”

We live far apart from each other

The only thing we could do was bless each other in our hearts.

When she was in the hospital

I called her every week

Every time she always so happy

I told her how sorry I was that could not spend time with her

Even when she was very sick in the hospital

I did not have time to go back to my hometown to take care of my mother

I call her again and again

One day I called her, she answered the phone slowly

From her voice, I feel she’s so tired, then I tell her

Mom you need rest, I will call you tomorrow

The next day I called her

No one answered the phone

Then I called her again; my dad answered the phone

“Your mother gave me the phone, she’s tired.”

Summer time is here

I come home to see my mom and dad

But only my dad is waiting for me

My mom had passed away a month ago

Right now, think of when I was young

Mother’s tasty food and holiday’s beautiful dress she made for me

That’s the happy moment in my life I want to remember

A little girl always follows her mother around from place to place

She will always be in my heart forever
