A Tribute to a lovely Mom....... With all my prayers to SIR JIM ARNOLD SIR'S LATE MOM
My Mom is ALWAYS my own
My Mom in ALL WAYS, my own
she is my own Salt,
Sweat and Sweet!
And She is my only
true and real love..
I should whisper
something more
About her:
Open your ears sharp and steady
Life has made us both for each other.
I don’t want you to go away,
Dear Mom ,
my only love.
There is no one else for me.
If you were to go,
you would leave me
now forever and ever
as worthless as falling leaves.
as fruitless as melting snows.
Dear Mom,
May I ask you something?
And please do not reject.
I could give you so much love.
If only you will accept me
Take my hand, be my own life
Dear Mom,
Before the Lord,
I swear
To give you all what
I can offer from my life.
For ever Lovingly,
Yours……
WILLIAMSJI MAVELI

WILLIAMJI MAVELI,
Sir words can't explain nor contain, the amount of respect, brotherly love and care, i have for you my dear brother, for my mom spoke of you even on her last days of life and when i had informed her, that you were back where you should have never left,(on Cosmo Funnel), she was content to know, that she would have the opportunity to once again, indulge herself into your poetic works of art, from her most favorite poet and (God) sent son. She lost her fight to kidney disease and a massive heart attack and what has come to be known as, "Failure to thrive" she saw her quality of of life was getting worse and sadly slipping away, no matter how hard she fought to retain it.I find myself lost in deep thought some times as i sat, in what once was a room filled with hope, laughter and the belief in (God) in her presence, now emptiness and silence now emanates, from this empty room, which contains no longer her life, just memories and feelings of emptiness, with more questions to be asked, rather than answers to be given. How hard it must have been, for her to totally give up on living, i will never know but one thing i do know, is that she made it to the destination, she spoke so highly of, in her final days and she earned, gained and dawned her awaiting seat and room prepared for her, beside her savior and friend of all friends, (God). So i left with her the same last words my brother was left with,(by her), when he passed last November..I asked of her, to safe a place in his kingdom for me...She always had a place in her heart for you Sir William and i am just sorry she was not able to tell you this personally... For you were one of mine and her rocks, when i took on this fight for her life, and for you i will always be humble and thankful to and for..Brother Chris last collection of poems really hit home and made me realize how simple and easy it is, to say you are sorry for the misunderstanding we encounter in life, but we don't some times and even the little ones, carry a meaningful significance, yet when they have departed, the little ones, doesn't seem to little anymore and we are then left to ponder our mistakes, for what seems now forever..The good thing William, is that she knew i gave her my all and if i could have traded places with her, i truly would have....Thank you my friend and thanks for always allowing your ears, to be my shoulder to lean on, when ever there become a need to be heard, by you, rest a sure, that you have a friend in me......This poem, (in more than a nut shell) has summed up my last (7) months which seemed as though just moments with my dying mom and with you i am flattered and honored to be its recipient.My wife read this and she cried(Sir) Williamji just as i know my mom has as well...This entire poem will be one that i will print and frame and place in the room where she once called home away from home,(her own). I tend to stop and say a prayer in this room since her departure and what strikes me as being powerful is the fact that, each time i pray to her, i have began my prayer with the same words you have placed in this poem, so when i saw this line, one amongst all of the other powerful ones, you have placed in this poem, it was eerie and at the same time comforting to know.....It also allowed me to realize, that you, really felt her presence in the preparation of this poem, in life as well as after
"Dear Mom,"
May I ask you something?
Sincerely,
Your (Brother) Jim Arnold
Sir Jim Arnold Jim Sir,
WILLIAMSJI MAVELI
Sir Williamjl,
You have transcended beyond any normal form of poetry and have become the creator of the poetry of new and improved and i am honored to have been placed in the line of fire of your excellence..In your hand, poetry takes on a life of its own and its birth, is as immaculate as the birth of life, itself....
Highest of all regards and honor,
Jimmy
Sir Jim Arnold Sir, Ms.Iman Z,
Thanks for reading my comments on the sad demise of a great " Mother of Love ". A Mother who gave birth deserves everything from us, Whenever I hear the sweet word "Mom" tears accumulate in my eyes. All mothers are "TEAR DROPS" of love, affection, anxiety throughout their life towards their children. Starting from Mother Teresa till Late Mother of Sir Jim, I bow my head down with words of faith and prayers, though I have never seen them by my naked eyes, but still they all are inside my heart, flamed like eternal love in heaven. These words are above all my lyrical skills and craft.
When you lose your beloved Mom or Dad or someone or something very precious to you, the grief can be deep. Pain, sad memories, and unanswered questions can haunt you like anything. You may even feel that you'll never be the same - that you'll never laugh or be whole again. Take heart - though there is no way to grieve without pain, there are healthy ways to grieve which allow you to constructively move forward. Don't settle for a life drained of joy - work through your loss and, slowly but surely, you will get better.
With my heartfelt regards and love to all readers of COSMOFUNNEL, I remain
WILLIAMSJI MAVELI
You WILLIAMSJI MAVELI, are the new voice, of modern day poetry, a voice that, if existed back in the days gone by, would have not allowed poetry or literary writes, to take back burner, to any other form of social literary works are anything else in general.I am just elated and proud, to be able to say,I knew this man and his wondrous works that has opened up a new era in writings. A heart so deeply entrenched in the compassion, caring and the betterment of all and for all mankind, you wonder how he have managed to retain any, for himself...A true (Angel) on earth, is his nature and a friendship i will always honor and cherish....All i can say, is "Thanks Cosmo Funnel" for WILLIAMSJI MAVELI, is back and have not missed a beat, since his departure...
A true brother and friend in deed,
Jimmy Lee Arnold

Val. & Susan,
Thank you both, with friends like you all, you ask yourself sometimes, who needs family? You guys are more supportive than some of my own siblings, whom were not there for her, during her last (7) months of life, but they surely showed up afterwards, in the form of vultures, circling road kill, whereby the roadkill, being my late moms assets.........You guys are wonderful and you all, have given me a reason to shake this all off, pull up my boots and take one day at a time, until i have at least, found who i use to be, and not settle for what they have turned me or shall i say reduced me to, (bitter,cold and vindictive), for how they treated her before she passed away and their antics after she has passed on.Thank you all, for all the support that has been given and with friends such as you all, this (drought and mixed emotions), that i am experiencing, (i am sure) will end sooner than later....Bless you all for when i find myself talking to all, i find the real me, slowly but surely knocking at and attempting to once again, enter the door rationality, thus placing all sense of forgiveness, back into perspective...Chris Thank you for the message, you pulled me from the dark, when i felt myself sinking without any means of returning....Williamjl you are (God sent)...
I owe you all,
Jim
First, I want to say that your poem is a good tribute to Jimmy's mom. Thank you for encouraging Jimmy. God only knows the pain that he is experiencing this moment. I'm sure that your comforting words meant a lot to Jimmy. Thank you, I'm Kiesha Taylor and I'm his friend too.
Hi Keisha,
A true friend you really are and i thank you for the sentiments given and advice to keep on keeping on, in which that i have and will and i am more than proud, to know people such as yourself and the rest, that responded not only to this poem but to all poems, rendered so open heartedly to this site.For you, (along with rest), are the building blocks, which makes the camaraderie, of this site, so sincere and close knit, as it has come to be.Your words, just as all others words, posted on this poem, has the ability to humble even the saddest of all hearts and i thank each and everyone of you, and i too, boast the friendship, i have so luckily, acquired from you and hand held ever so out, to you...
Thank you Dear Lady,
Jimmy
Sir Kiesha Taylor Sir,
After my Greetings,
Thought, I have never seen Sir Jim Arnold Jim Sir and his Late beloved Mom, in my mind, someone had enlightened me that Sir Jim and his family is related to my family. I believe in God and I very strongly trust that a relative means all humans who are created by God, not only my own father and Mom.
God has never asked to make a border between India and Pakistan. Even a Pakistani friend's Mom is my own Mom, this is what was taught by my Late Mom when I was a boy. And to my credit I have written nearly 20 poems on motherhood. Still motherhood is my best theme for poetry. Dear Sir, I am happy to receive a note from you as a GOOD friend of Sir Jim Arnold Sir. I believe, one day I will have a chance to meet him and his family. Though Life is short, do good, say good, die good....Thanks for your comments which I consider as an honor to me as a Poet.
Regards & Love to you and your family, Sir
WILLIAMSJI MAVELI
Sir Kiesha Taylor Sir,
Regret error
WILLIAMSJI MAVELI
Dear Jim- I am so sorry for your loss, this is sincere, and Williams wrote such a beautiful tribute, there is nothing that can match who she was, and none the less, she is in a better place, full of warmth and peace, loving hands and beauty beyond one's imagination, blessings from the angels"
Blessings to you Jim, and thanks to
Williams for a beautiful tribute
Nancy
My Dearest Nancy,
I thank you for the kindest of words and all you say and do, is always sincere and if people were such as yourself, Williamji, Shah,(both) Val's,bother Chris, (both) Susans, Tina, Kiesha, Iman and many others unmentioned by name but known deeply, in heart, (wow) what a wonderful world this would be. In a better place she is, in spirit and soul but those memories, i most selfishly, retain here forever...No one could ask for better hands to be in, than those you have so lovingly described above..You are a blessing in the disguise of a wonderful poetess and i am forever grateful for you all...Williamji is a modern day genius, that needs to be recognized, in life, rather then after, breaking all traditions, of how credit due to a powerful (Poet) now, is given after their departure, rather than when it should be given, in the present...
Forever a friend,
Jimmy
Nancy McGowin,
All mother's in the world are your God Mother's. Treat them well, Love them and look after them at their old ages, sure you will be rewarded by someone ! Thanks to all those who posted their comforting messages to my Sir Jim Arnold Sir.
With prayers to my own Mom who is in the heaven.
Regards & Love to all
WILLIAMSJI MAVELI

Take Care My Brother,
Jim
