Pictures At The Threshold: To The Heaven Poem by Mahfooz Ali

No matter where I am, no matter what I do,
I will always think of you.
Not only my mother, but my best friend,
We share a lifetime of memories that will never end.
The memories are like pictures in my mind,
They will travel on with me through time.
The memories of your children at home and at school.
All become pictures you can take with you.
When your time has come and you leave this place,
You will have many pictures to take to heaven's gate.
