The Love And Care Of My Mum Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

Simple joys we shared together.
It was love and simply love.

I grew up in her care.
She built up a heaven
for me in our poor hut.

We ate together
plantains and wild fruits.
We drank tea from
our earthen pot.
We were healthy and happy.
Mummy, I miss you.
I miss you a lot.

Come to me to pour
water on my body
and clean me from guilt.

Now I am in a big city
earning money
selling myself.

In my lonely moments
I think of your love
And cry bitter tears.

Mummy, please come.
Pour water on me
to clean me from my guilt.
