Do you believe that souls of departed family members go back during special occasions? Maybe it's coincidental to some but what if it happens in every special moment of your life?

| February 14, 2015. Hotel window in Quiapo, Manila, Philippines. Taken few hours before our Physician Licensure Examination. |
When I took my Medical boards,
I knew you were there,
A bird outside my window that woke me up every day
and put me to sleep in the evening.
When my brother left to work abroad
We knew you were there,
A butterfly who rode with him
from our house to the airport.
When nanay was alone at home,
I knew you were there,
A butterfly who stayed with her in the room
until she felt okay and stopped crying.
When I came back from Manila,
We knew you were there,
A butterfly who was at our door step
and never left until the next morning.
You were physically gone,
Yes, it's almost 2 years, but
I know you're still there
A butterfly or bird that reminds us of a love from a father.
Today is December 25 and
I know you are here
A butterfly whose presence makes us smile
and makes our Christmas day so special.
