A Son's Eulogy to His Mother

It was a hard day, August 15. I finally had the memorial service for my mother, Maria Mapa Zamora, at Our Lady of Lourdes in Toronto celebrated by Fr. Michael Coutts. Here is the poem that I made for her during a restless night when I couldn't sleep:

Mama
by Alex Mapa Zamora

You have taken care of me
Ever since I was small
There was no request for you to do
That was too much or too tall

Whenever I scraped my knee, fell on my face, had a broken heart,
You were always there to make me
To have a brand new start

Too many mistakes I made in my life
But you always forgave me
Never once did you made me feel
That I had given you strife

All my days were beautiful and wonderful
Because you were there to make it so
My dearest Ma, I love you
And hope that you know

No matter what I do, say and feel
Mama, you are so important to me
That everyday of my life
Forever in my heart
You will always ever be

Rest in peace, Mama.
