Adopt A Mother Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

No one would like you
When you over eat
Except your mother.

No one would love you
Without a reason
Except your mother.

No one would guard you
At the cost of him/her
Except your mother.

You are her off shoot.
See your navel scar,
That’ll tell you a lot.

She did everything
To your good as if
She did to herself.

The least thing she wants
Is a safe farewell,
With pain attended.

If it is too late
To you, do atone
By adopting one.
