Too long, anxiety separation began.

Photo found, address attached; was it late?

Tucked away information about me.

*

Momma left, like only yesterday.

My sisters were looking for many clues.

A time capsule, hidden tight.

*

Phone number, a diamond ring.

Heavenly words, meaningful things, the clue solved.

Momma, my sister, family again.

*

Ten years went by; why?

Work as a team, stay together, family.

Finally, together forever, love mom.
