I recently lost a friend, a mother and a supporter. She was dear to me, to us. A lovely human being who loved with all her strength and was passionate about people and animals. This is one of the poems I wrote when I thought about how much I miss her. I know it is not the last I will write about her because there will never be enough pages to describe how much she meant to us. Rest easy Mama, till we meet again.
