Mother 6 - My Adorable Amma Poem by Geeta Radhakrishna Menon

Mother 6 - My Adorable Amma

Rating: 5.0


When the red birds and blue birds,
Twitter tee - twitter tee- on tree tops,
In the early hours of tender dawn,
O Amma! I hear your voice calling me
Geeta………Geeta……….!

When the sun rises
With an ethereal morning glow,
O Amma! I see your sparkling eyes,
Looking at me full of love,
A face so charming and lovely!

When the daisies smile brightly,
When the periwinkle winks naughtily,
When the sunflower laughs joyfully,
O Amma! I see your smiling face
So beautiful, with a brilliant halo around you!

When a sweet breeze blows
Enveloping me with its cool fragrance,
O Amma, I feel your presence
Singing a soulful song,
Calling me again and again,
Geeta ….Geeta………….!

Your loving daughter
Geeta

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Twenty One years have passed since my mother made her transition on 25th March 2002. Yet, I feel her presence within me even more intensely. Not a day passes without remembering her. I have penned poems on her. But no amount of poems will suffice for a wonderful mother like her, so full of unconditional love for her daughter.

Loved it. Kind of like Edgar allen Poe's Raven minus the horror.

Most beautiful and refined poem I ever read about the beloved and adorable Amma. I can feel the great emotions superbly, since my beloved Mom is just like your Amma, dear Dr. Geeta. Indeed I never forget my beloved Mom's presence either.
