Umbilical cord....
From inception in the womb
Cocooned and nurtured,
the foetus
Growing by the minute, the hour
She’s there, each time, everywhere
Out in the world, to suckle, to giggle and
cry
Firmly snuggled in the lap of luxury
Overcoming every fear, with a lullaby
She’s there, each time, everywhere
The artist instils in me to clasp, to sit
and crawl
And the first step to independence and
separation
The guiding light ever watchful, and ready
to embrace
She’s there, each time, everywhere
Inculcating habits, culture, religion and
prayer
To sing, to dance and to emote
The craftswoman sculpting and moulding me
to shape
She’s there, each time, everywhere
Me, the convoy just followed the escort,
Like a shepherd herding and tending
To study, to perform and act and enact
She’s there, each time, everywhere
The pied piper of my life, a ready reckoner
In the manual of life for all things good
To emulate, to follow and reproduce
She’s there, each time, everywhere
Creator, bearer, nourisher, protector,
Supporter, saviour, upholder and vindicator
The Omnipotent, Omnipresent and Omniscient
She’s there, each time, everywhere.
Salutations to my mother.....the mother of
all mothers!
The verses tumbled out of
my heart like a torrent, unstoppable and breathless. As my mother carries my
heart always, I am in her academy of learning life’s lessons forever. She is a
bank’s vault where in I have safeguarded all my thoughts, worries, hatred,
sorrows, regrets and anxiety and in return have earned rich interest in the
form of joy, happiness, courage, protection, intellect and vindication. A
mother’s affection and endurance cannot be described in words and at each and
every walk of life I feel it and look up to her in awe and admiration. Through
thick and thin, my mother has faced it all but each time emerging stronger. She
fought cancer like a warrior and came out victorious teaching me the meaning of
will and determination in the process. My mother has an “expert’s”
understanding and approaches life physically, mentally and spiritually. A typical
day starts with reverence, bowing before the almighty and the Supreme Being, to
make her day meaningful.
“Matru”, the Sanskrit word for
mother has lent the word “mater” to Greek and “mother” to English, and thereby, the world has acknowledged the sanctity of the word and the source and glorified her presence in all texts. To describe
my mother in a nutshell would be:-
“Strong” which means she effectively
encapsulates tenacity and resilience
“Beautiful” as in
exciting and admirable
“Intelligent” as she
is able to understand and comprehend and make judgement
“Gentle” for being
kind, caring and amiable
“Classy” as she is having
the air of sophistication and refinement
And
“Sacrificing” for
giving up so much so that her child could have as much!
I am what my mother made me and I am
thankful for that!!!
