Mother, may I…

Dazzling shades

Of clouds

From sunrise to sunset

Hassling trades

For sprouts

From breakfast to dinner

How many of them

Might I have missed

If you weren’t my home

To witness at…

Oceans and mountains

Breathtaking

Devotions and encounters

Worth chasing

How many of them

Might I have missed

If you never gave me life

To be sentient and thrive…

A ‘complete woman’ you were called

After having a child

But a complete woman you were

Even before having a child

Thousands of frustrations 

that were fearlessly undergone 

Rollercoasters of emotions

that were flowed till I born

‘twas nothing but a choice

And only a choice

You made over your comfort

An eternal symbol of selfless love

You unfolded to the world

Mother, you held me safe inside

Mother, you flew high seeing me safe outside

Mother, you made me whole; 

I shine

Mother, you portrayed my soul;

I feel divine

Now that I continue my flight

You affectionately did guide

Mother, may I fall into your arms and hide

for one last time

Before these eyes 

Open wide and confide

Seeing you beside me

Walking in heaven so nice 

Isn’t real at all 

just a dream of mine…
