Mother... My Ode To You Poem by preeti Govada

Mother... My Ode To You



Each time I fall

Every moment that I find myself broken

Wallowing in sordid pain of yore

Tempted to flee, desperate for refuge

And fear I've reached the end of the tunnel

You come to me then, like an angel

Caress my heart and soothe my soul

Hold me up and calm me down

Your magic words, they prod me to hold on

Your tranquil presence breathes life in me again
Fills me with hope and urges me to fight

My innate morosity and despair

Every accolade, each trophy of mine, to you I attribute

Mother, my beacon of life, my reason to survive
