I followed the sun to lay you down:::: to my Mother a year ago: I didn't go to sleep that night, I stayed up rearranging your room for the hospital bed to come...I got your things ready for your days appointment...In the morning, we talked, joked and mused for the year to come...within minutes we would be holding you, praying, praying, calling for help, doing all we could to revive you....but your angel came unknown to us...you left with such peace and quickness. We still in hope, waiting for you to regain consciousness...how beautifully tragic...it replays... I followed the sun to lay you down... The rays upon your head-how golden. The tears we cast like waterfalls upon this ground which holds both you and us... will never be parched... our foundation from beginning...it is steady- yet our heart quakes and wind screams from below our lungs We are completely pulled apart by muscles, bones...sinews broken, our chambers echo unhidden...our thoughts of the day like a 1000 puzzle pieces waiting to be framed and glued, your words ring in every room and yet this rich blood from you within us breathing life that percolates... We are at a lost/loss yet recaptured enamored by memories oh the laughs and pain endure...SHAKE us from this betwixt ...it is too much to bear...rib cages caught between grieving and gasps for air-as the jell-o of laughter jiggles yet there comes a mildness, a boldness, a fierce... the inheritance...the abundant love...I see you in her soul and I laugh roaring -the directness, the witty, dry humor and discerning... I shake my head...I GAVE BIRTH TO MY MOTHER, ohhh MOMMY, Ja ja ja … we are Clover Hughie-Scott's daughters...from womb or grander....the umbilical cord is generational and yes Mommy we have a tie … you were right…

I am grateful to have inherited your eyes, your “eyes” and now realize your visions… what journey to step forward in this new dew of morning and mourning. We are up early before even the bird or the creeping sun. The moon awaits it’s time to clock out and rest . We remember in our automated routines. We don’t forget to walk to this side or that and watch those corners as if you are still sitting there on your phone or in your books. We smile, we laugh, we downright cackle as you would say and we shed tears. You always said don’t be afraid of the water, the tears that may come or the sweat from hard work . It’s all for growth. We have had so much Mommy so much…Both manageable and intolerable. I now understand your prayers, shields and placing. We have not feared one bit. Thank you for sharing faith, persistence, resilience and hard work. The path is in his hands… Now we know what was in yours! Love you forever and a day. Happy Mother’s Day 22 -Erica-Hope

Sending my love and condolences to the Hughie-Scott family. Momma Scott, as a lovingly called her, prayed for, encouraged, and nurtured my sister and I when we lost our mother as little girls. Her genuine love for me, helped to mold me into the woman of God I am today. She will always have a place in my heart. Erica Hope, thank you for sharing your mother with us. She is a mother of many children. May God continue to wrap His loving arms around all of you and give you comfort.
