Re-Dedicated Poem by Rehan Hyder

Re-Dedicated



Simmering stew of love
Left unattended

She left in such a rush
That she forgot to tell:

When to straighten my skirt

And when done away with
-Put my smiles away in attic




[Originally inspired after a brief conversation with a very precious friend about her mother who died when she was 5; didn't know that in just six months it had to be re-dedicated to her when she died and left her 5 years daughter-forever; this is from her daughter]
