I looked at your picture today,
I looked into your eyes and face.
I wondered how long ago
this picture was taken.
Before I was born?
I looked at your face
and saw pure and sincere love,
the kind of love you always displayed.
I saw the smile on your face, Mami,
with no anger or malice at all
Because your love was great and true,
that’s how I remember you.
I looked at your picture today
how pretty and symmetrical
your face looked. Your opened forehead,
with your hair pinned back, thin eyebrows,
two little brown eyes that are jovial.
Your nose’s straight, small, and finely shaped.
Your lips are thin vaguely smiling,
your chin is curved giving your face
a smooth contour. With shoulders relaxed,
arms crossed in a sleeveless white dress,
a slender body shapely formed
Your legs are cross, too. You’re happy,
how pretty you looked in that picture.
You’re relaxed, full of life, youth, and
beauty. Mami, I’m sorry I
never told you how pretty you look.
I looked at your picture today
and I want to say your beautiful.
