Dedicated to my MOM and all mothers in the world |
It started on one fine day
Forcing her to take rest and lay
She felt weak and dizzy
Barely able to stand up nimbly
But her face was glowing and she was gay
She thought “It’s my lucky day, Hurray!!”
She knew she had lot more to endure
And that it is going to be a very long tenure
With each passing day, the intensity increased
She started to feel the weight and her mobility ceased
She could not sit, stand or walk with agile
And trying to stay normal was futile
She accepted everything with smile of angel
She never complained, neither did she sniffle
Aware of the fact that the end would tear her
Never did she blabber or never did she banter
Time rolled and the ordeal was for three quarters
She faced the end with a dignity of warriors
It made her bleed and tore her apart
The pain had almost stopped her heart
The sun pierced the sky and splashed it with red
It broke the dawn, starting a new day ahead
The worm had to break away from the cocoon
To emerge as a butterfly and enjoy the moon
The ordeal was complete and I was born
And with love she admired her firstborn
I salute her and give her a salaam
All I can say is “I love you Mom”
Very Good. Brought tears to my eyes.

Good Manasa. Good. Hats off to you.
ReplyDeleteYou aptly narrated the physical pains of a woman in the process of becoming a mother. You please also try to throw some light on the pleasures and pains of parents in upbringing children and expectations of parents from children vise versa.

Manasa, Babai told and showed me about your blog. It is really fantastic. You have good flair for creative writing with rithem and poetic expression. Inni rojulu maaku teluvadu neelo intha pratiba patavalu unnayani. Manduva kutumbamulo manchi kavayitri udayinchindi.

ReplyDeletehi manasa
ReplyDeleteyour lyrics are great i am amused read Pope to master technic of using rhyme in showing a world of feeling in a few words. try to attend any writers workshop it will help in keeping alive and honing up your blessing for which to get recognition is as difficult as ur mother felt in giving you as a blessing to us and to this world
good luck.
