She looked at the kid
With a cold face
A child who reminds her of her haze
A child whom she pretentiously hated
A child who was the part of her body for months
A child whom she bred with her blood
Sucking her breast voraciously
Quenching thirst and hunger
Holding her pearl necklace,
With its tender hands
The symbol of her immaculate trust
Was a symbol of dissolute life for the world
A mistake for which both are to be blamed,
Why do women bear the taunts?
Only because she conceive the child? ? ? ! ! !
The child withdrew his mouth
And looked at her with a contented smile
She kissed his tender face
Tears running from her eyes
She smiled at him and said
'You are my son, my life, my aim
Let the world cry down me
Let the world spit on me
I am your mother
I wont leave u my child, I wont '
A child is innocent, however errant either or both of his/her parents may be. Mother's love is unconditional. Emotions of a single mother has been nicely portrayed in this poem.
A lovely piece of poetry, well articulated and penned with insight to capture the plight of some single mums and the unconditional love for their babies. A beautiful piece indeed. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem THE PHOENIX STRANGLER.
'Mother' is one of the mother beautiful words packed with intense feelings. You have portrayed that so well here. Every line shows deep conviction. Great poem.
