CELEBRATING MOTHER'S DAY: STORY OF A MOTHER


Mother's Day is a celebration honoring the mother of the person, as well as motherhood, maternal bonds, and the influence of mothers in society. It is celebrated on various days in many parts of the world, most commonly in the months of March or May. It complements similar celebrations honoring family members, such as Father's Day, Siblings Day, and Grandparents Day. 

In India it's celebrated on 14th May, interestingly enough, which is also my mother's birthday.

Below is a poem that is dedicated to every mother.


The day I was born
For once she smiled at my cry
Thence at my single shriek
Mother rolled tears, gave smile no second try

Every step of crawl
Was the matter of joy
Mother's heart ached at every outing
When I waved hands, saying, bye bye

Night is gone half
Singing lullaby slow
Mother had no sleep
Rocking me to and fro

I grew older
Mother was my guide
Had nothing to bother
She stood always by my side

From dad’s spanking
To the scold of teacher
Though it be a dark shadow 
Found Warmth in Mother

Crash of bicycle
Injuries on every side
Or fighting with neighbors
Mother stood always by my side

As a child had small illness
She nursed with care
Dawn was at the door
But Mother didn’t tire 

Feeding child well
She goes hunger
Gave up on her needs
It’s but the Mother

Using broom, roller, sandal at err
Hitting with everything, here & there
Later, comes with food baked in love
It’s but the Mother

Heavy Rain drops 
Or the December’s cold
Summers’ scorching heat
Calmed in Mother's hold

Get me KFC, McDowell
Taste of Hyderbadi flavour
Nothing matches home
There's the Mother

I see Aesthetic of Taj
Or Magnanimity of Bhurj tower
Nothing replaces home
There's is the Mother

A place to hide or share
In the stormy weather
Had a bad day in life?
Refreshing anew the arms of Mother

Her joy is not in the park
Roaming Market or visiting theatre
She overwhelms with joy
When her child calls her Mother

With all child’s inability
Weakness and failure
Someone’s love never changes for you
It’s but the Mother

Masking every hurt
In the face of a gentle mother
Never sharing her own agony
It’s but the Mother

Day is quite busy
Friends, work everywhere
Waiting for just a call from child
It’s but the Mother

Mother's labors go unseen
With no or little praise
She painstakingly works day and night
Until the end of her days 

Forfeited comfort
Infusing my day with color
She almost lost her life
It’s but the Mother

At school you are teacher
In home you are keeper
With children you are Mother
Wonder!! Do you stop ever?

Day hangouts
And night get-together
Someone awaits back in home
It’s but the Mother

God is greatest; creator of all
They say before God there’s no other
If I have a chance to say
Yet, after God is the Mother

Always wishing best for her children
If someone’s lips never cease in prayer
Pleading God for a family’s safety
It’s but the Mother

Children grow, get busy with job
And tent a family newer
Never disremember your parent
There’s a waiting Mother 

Surrendered herself at the altar of motherhood
To see child grow safe and greater
What do you’ve got to return?
For a love undubious beyond measure  

Love your mother,
Coz you won't find another 


Share this with your mother and let her know your love for her.

Happy Mother's Day and stay blessed!!!
