MOTHER'S DAY 2020

Blessed are all those who have their mothers
To protect and save them, like stolid buffers.
Who else is going to keep a vigilant eye, so that
Nothing untoward, our hopes and dreams, smothers?

Where on earth, will you find someone like a mother
Who braves all odds, so her children won't  suffer ?
Where else will you find such a cosy bosom, where
Without compunction, you can snuggle into shelter ?

Without becoming a mother first, you can't ever know
What a mother does to you, to make you grow.
When she puts her eyes into thine, and stares at you
The embryo of love takes shape and begins to grow.

Her touch brings to life, all that the future will unfold.
Without her touch, you would never learn to uphold
And assimilate the gifts of Nature, benignly bestowed.
Yes, the eyes to wonder, following the eyes to behold !

Bonding with your mother will ensure that you peep
And ask yourself incessantly : How deep is deep
When you begin to enter the depths of the human heart ?
And that will be a memento, worthwhile to keep !

Om Shantih
