Laugh Through Tears



Rising sun, along with some rain,
Showing her smile, hiding her pain.
Producing a rainbow full of cheer,
To keep her family strong, she just laughed through tears.

Leaving her family alone, putting on a face mask,
She married my father, to complete her father's task.
Joining and caring of another family whom she never knew in past,
So to keep everyone happy, she again laughed through tears at last.

Holding me for 9 months, she gave me birth,
Defining me by her name, she commended me with all her worth.
As everyone does cry, I too cried a lot when I was born,
But to make me smile again, she laughed through tears from dusk till dawn.

Growing from a young boy to a gentlemen,
She taught me manners first and education then.
But still sometimes I fight with her over my mistake,
So to end the fight, she just laughs through tears before we take a break.

All through her life, she has always been my biggest support,
Be it a fight or a game or a performance report.
Being on her side, making her feel proud is what I try,
So this time to make her win, let me laugh through tears to never let her cry.
