The original poem The Prodigal Daughter was posted on 16 October 2019. Now it seems fitting for today’s sentiment.
The prodigal daughter
car tyres roll on
the crackling pebble road
I drag my laden footsteps
to the yellow mud brick house
the door of my childhood flung open
grandma greets me with
her broad smile hung on
her criss cross face
my body quivers
at the sight of
the new fallen snow
my heart is filled with
flushed blood of
coming home

God bless her soul.

It’s a beautiful reminder of a life well lived. When it comes down to it, it’s how we loved and how we were loved. It is evident that she loved and loved others in abundance.
