MAUGHTER

She took her in arms,

For her daughter was here.

Smile gleamed another,

For she was a mother.

She had to stay awake,

For her daughter was sick.

Made her knowledge richer,

For she was a teacher.

She didn’t become harsh,

For her daughter was teen.

Helped her become wiser,

For she was an advisor.

She stood with face uplifted,

For her daughter was victorious.

Best of life did enter,

For she was a mentor.

She was hiding her tears,

For her daughter was bride.

Sorrow and love perfectly blend,

For she was her best friend.
