To My Sweet Mum Poem by Zine Hadjira

To my mother
I can’t find the words that deserve to describe my feelings for you
You are greater than any description
Now I am a mother and I hardly understand how you wre so happy with us
Whatever we said, whatever we did..
You were and you are always the most patient and most wonderful mother.
You were our shelter in our hard times
You are still the great mother I have known
But, we have been so ungrateful
I know, you feel so lonely and helpless
So close so far from us
How I feel sorry about you
And can’t do much for you
Though you need us all
No one cares at all
Sorry mum
Whatever I do I’ll never do enough
To thank you for all the good things
You deprived yourself to give us
You were our heat in the freezing nights
You were our shadow in the hot days
I know, how you feel so lonely
So tired by the long nights of winter
And long days of the summer
I beg your pardon
I am a mother now, and will be a grandmother soon
I know the feeling of love you had for us
The joy that filled your heart whenever we did something good
Sorry mum…sorry mum..sorry, forgive my carelessness.
