My Son, My Life

Before I even thought of

Having you in my life

And before I could even ask for

I heard your voice....

From that moment what I just longed

Was to confirm your presence

I kept praying and hoping all day long

And finally my prayers were heard....

Every stage of your formation

Every breath you took

I could feel you within me

Grow every nook....

Days kept getting long and nights short

Many storms and disasters came along

But having you within me

Made me sail strong....

As the day neared for your arrival

And things were not easy for us

I asked God for a favour

To let us live together....

Next moment when I regained consciousness

And good wishes came pouring in

All that I ever longed for

Was you to see ....

The rising sun brought a new ray of hope

Chirping of bird's singing a song of welcome

As I held you first time in my arms

Words were falling short to express this eternal bond....

As you kept growing

From new born to a toddler

From the time you first clutched my finger

To the first word you spoke.....

I'm thankful to God for this beautiful gift

Only a mother knows what motherhood means

Even a slightest scratch or a screech on you

A mother feels the pain that cannot be expressed....

Am blessed to have a Son like you

My life revolves around you

And till life is through

It will always do....
