My mother lived long
outlived my father
was a good executor for long
then let loose rather.
She spoke firm
discipline was the essence
later she became infirm
lost her presence.
She commanded her staff
we, children, looked up at her
she turned an empty stuff
her own son ill-treated her.
She was terror in her hey days
carried out her duties perfectly
she became a puppet in later days
treated by her son imperfectly.
She did not realize her mistakes
thought she was doing well
perhaps she was threatened in all takes
she departed in her sleep as well.
