An Advice Poem by Mahalaxmi Naidu

My son

Bear in mind, my dearest son, don’t judge yourself on your appearance.
For that you should believe, it is not one important thing in this world.
Dusky shade of yours, must never make you feel ugly,
Talent & Intelligent mind rules the world, you got to believe.
Your thoughts will make you what you want to be,
Just pay no heed to what the mirror makes you see.
Life is beautiful and awe-inspiring, enjoy each moment of it,
Keep smiling; let the lamp of happiness happily lit.
Be courageous and face the world with valor, by passing love and peace.
Be a good human, a kindhearted & pleasant soul, holding immense beauty deep within.
Make a stamp of your being, let the world feel your presence,
Don’t you worry my child; we will be there always for your defence.
But be sure to do the best for the humanity, the most you can,
Never only in words, bring about and have it all done.
And we your proud parents, will be there always to applause for you,
Believe in my words, my dearest son, success will definitely come to you!

From,
Your loving mother.
