The two of US


 

The month of March is dedicated to my late grandmother. Just like March brings everything to life, she would add beauty and grace to everything around her. It is also her birthday month.

Here’s a piece that brings back memories of my relationship with her.

It’s the two of US

There are times when I think
she is me and I am her,

Two peas in a pod,
Two friends on a picnic,
Two granddaughters playing board games,
Two daughters on a stroll,
Two mothers in prayer,
Two artists soaked in inspiration,
Two singers hitting the same notes in the song,
Two minds with brilliant ideas,
Two hearts overflowing with love,
Two writers with unfinished novels,
Two cooks with the same secrets in our recipes,
Two creative souls with the same amazing genes,

It’s true,
I am HER and she is ME!
