The Eternal Gift

No matter what the odds are

I always find her by my side,

Although the wins and achievements were in my name,

But she was the one who gleamed with pride.

For the catastrophes approaching my way,

I couldn’t care lesser,

For I know that I won’t be alone ‘coz she will always be there.

Her gentle hands caress me whenever I feel weak,

She is the only sun my sky knows when it becomes dark and bleak,

I can’t even measure what all she’s sacrificed so far,

She possesses the virtues of fortitude,endurance and patience knowing no bars,

She is the wide earth for me to walk,

turquoise sea offering depth of peace,

Radiant sun for me to be warm,

And the seamless sky for me to breathe .

The God too marvels at His mystique creation,

Who carries in her a world of love beyond any imagination.

I used to wonder if there can be any other like her,

Then I heard the voice from within

“No ,It is impossible

For anyone else to even be compared

Let alone be similar to her.

She is a blessing to you from the almighty

That comes only to the fortunate.”

That time my little innocent heart did discover,

The eternal gift in the name of my mother!!
