Mother



Someone asked me if I had ever seen an angel on earth, not an angel, I replied, but rather God himself(or herself if you care).

She brought me in this world, gave me an identity.

Adamant I was to keep on resenting her, but she couldn't have been any closer.

All the years she's been;  a guiding light, a protective angel and above all a caring companion.

She loved and loved and loved and loved,

She fussed and fussed and fussed and fussed.

When I was writhing with pain, she was the one who cried.

When I was all but failed, she was the one who tried.

She couldn't stop her own tears, but mine were hastily wiped.

She taught me to live with pride, don't fail until tried, don't be awake upto late night.

Oh! I had met a goddess! Met her on a day very fine;  people fundly remember the day as the birthday of mine..
