From a little seed
Does a great oak tree grow tall
All it needs is timeRitu 2016
Don’t wish time away
They already grow too fast
Embrace their childhoodRitu 2016
I can’t stop looking
My morbid fascination
Growing all the timeRitu 2016

Tj’s Household Haiku Challenge.
There was a photo
And the word VIBRANT.
My take…
Colours so vibrant
A bouquet of memories
Each telling a taleRitu 2016
The fabric is actually from my mum. These are outfits that she was bought for her wedding, and each separate piece really does have a story behind it. She has kept some of these pieces aside for me, as memory pieces, things that I will have a sentimental attachment to.
She always starts the conversation with “I’m not being morbid but one day I won’t be here, so I want to get these things sorted out.” And there is a pile of these jewel-coloured outfits for me, and for my sister in law!
One thing’s for sure, I’ll never forget my mum.
