Remembering Rizza


On My Shoulder: Carrying Rizza


I remember carrying Rizza during this occasion


But I do not remember why the two of us were in this location
I think I went to pick her up from her school 
And then we walked

Hmmm
Who was taking the picture
That I can't remember
Was it you Ate(big sister, well..older sister, if not big)
or maybe my best friend
Hmmmm

I did carry Rizza again during a procession
My wife remember that well

What I also remember was when I carried her when she was a baby
I was really young then
and I was so afraid that she might fall-off from my hold

And sure she did
Not as a baby but when she was older(bigger)

She slipped through our prayers
and gone ahead
and I was not there.

  1. Your big older sister wasn't there when you carried her on your shoulder , she was probably at home or at school and neither was she at the procession when you carried her again for the last time , she was in a place far far away. But she was always there for her in spirit and in prayers. In remembrance....
