A Big Day Without Mom Poem by PINONDANG SITUMEANG

A Big Day Without Mom



Cloudy quiet morning
Step up solemnly to the altar
Witness by God and loving families
Entering a bright new life
Blinking Christmas lamps


A vacant chair beside a sad father
Sob, tears overflow the handkerchief
Mother lying in hospital white sheet
Who longing this special wedding
Of only, eldest, grown beloved son


All chairs occupied in a ball room
Scarves Ulos covered both shoulders
by me alone
Symbol of love and united
Father can't hold the tears not to shed


Before the sunset, enter a new home
Welcome a new spouse alone
No mom's hug and kissing
Makes the eyes blur, wet cheeks


Father, family and new spouse
Gather for long prayers
Begging for mom relieve soon
To complete the happy atmosphere
