Wind Beneath My Wings

Wind Beneath My Wings

This is a story of some twenty years back,

When my life was abruptly derailed from its track.

God decided in his wisdom to leave me bereft,

And took away my life partner in a cardiac arrest.


My mother then rose majestically to the challenge,

She helped me get back on my feet and to find my balance.

My son’s class tenth exams loomed large on the horizon,

Through suicidal thoughts on occasions, my mother steered me towards logic and reason.


She packed her bags without hesitation and moved in with us,

And gave up her comfortable life without a fuss.

Next few months she was our Rock of Gibraltar,

Though vulnerable herself, she gave us strength to face the world; not once did she falter.


God could not be everywhere, so HE made Mothers,

And filled her with myriad virtues to achieve unthinkable wonders.

Unconditional love, compassion, empathy, and sacrifice, are some words that come to mind,

HE has her so immaculately designed.


Much waters have passed under the bridge since then, 

But today if I stand tall, it’s because of her tireless effort time and again.

Where would we all be without our mothers?

In her warm loving embrace, we want and love to be smothered.
