Celebrating motherhood.

Roshini 1995 (Bangalore)



As long as his touch is so hasty,
all the night suits lie gently nasty.

No rest for these heavy breasts,
that pour his tummy to the fullest

Smoky sleepless nights
might laugh at our strange fights,

Yet we pass them right away,
welcomed each dawn's play.

About this poem

It's all about mother's overwhelming trauma when she bears a child. Motherhood is tough but truly joyful.
