My Mother Poem by Sonali Ganguly

A tender touch with a loving caress,
woke me up from a slumber deep.
her adorable smile made my day,
ever-since my heart, does her affection receive.

recalling those days, nostalgic i feel,
yearning to get them back, even makes me weep.
gone are the days when i slept in her lap,
time pulled us apart but memories do live.

her day begins with the,
offering to god with incense & flower,
well being of the entire family,
is her ultimate prayer.

concerned she is with the every single one,
happy is the family with her love & care.
great is the god who made her such,
a blessed soul, with a soft heart, precious and rare.

curious i am to know, but still in vain,
does she possess some magical cane.
the touch which makes a happiness rain,
and she turns my tears to smile again.

alone in my distress she left me never,
her presence strengthens me to fight with fear.
purity of her thoughts have touched me ever,
lucky i am to have a mom like her.

I saw her eyes cry, to heal my pain.
bleed her soul, but did never complain.
being her child, a promise do i claim
instilling smile on her face, is my ultimate aim.

me as her child in every birth, this do i pray.
her angel i am, deep in her heart may i ever stay.
