The Love Of My Life

When I first entered this world,

She cradled me in her arms.

She rocked me and fed me,

And made sure no harm befalls.

As the time passed,

I started crawling around.

She made sure nothing hurt me,

Not even the hard ground.

Soon I grew up,

And started walking on my feet.

She holds my hand and makes me walk,

Not bothering to take her seat.

As more time passed,

And I started going to school.

She wiped my tears,

And taught me to be cool.

I grow with time,

And now I appear for boards.

She teaches me and helps me,

Making sure I don't reach empty roads.

Time flies by,

And now I'm in college.

I can't give much time to her,

As I'm busy studying and working for a wage.

In a few years from now,

I'll be busy with my job.

She'll be awake waiting for me,

How many sleepy night of hers shall I rob?

She has given me love and care,

From that time I was in her womb.

She made me strong and taught me that,

Love is needed until you lie in your tomb.

Life is like a beach,

Many waves come and go.

But you are the everlasting wind,

For whom all the trees bow.

Your love lasts for eternity,

Not like a computer ROM.

I love you from all my heart,

My Amma, My Mommy, My MOM.
