A tribute to all women; always daughters, some times mothers - we are the core, the rock of the family and thus the community. A mother's message to a daughter.

1. Mothers & Daughters Though I am your mother, Try to remember Once long ago A young woman like you was I. Though you are a daughter Try to remember, just try A child like yours, you once were. All of us together, the same journey, different times… Try to remember as you journey my journey, The sweetness of life; try to remember…. I once was, what you now are… A mother , a daughter, Just try ……. © Shammah 2009

11. Do not cry When we must say good-bye; Do not weep for I only sleep. Instead let me go With a smile that warms my soul. Let me quietly return To the everlasting Home To which we all journey… And I will greet you there. Just remember this promise Passed on to you with a kiss; One mother to one daughter, Generation to generation…. Just try to remember – Our love Will keep us forever.

12. As I fly away home….
