Unconditional Love

In the darkness

On a lunar eclipse day

As much as the moon

Tries to find its way

Your mind was always

Etched with my thoughts

Right from my childhood

 

Amidst the household chores

You ensured that you take care

As much as the Sun pierced

Through the passing dark clouds

And gave this earth

Enough of radiation

 

You remained still

Unmindful like a sun

When all the pains

Where surrounding

You like celestial bodies

And haunting you daily

But you remained

Undeterred, unmindful

Of the fact, that it could hurt you

Just to protect me

From all the evils

Surrounding you.

 

You did not bother

Who and where you are

You did not carry

An Iota of doubt

Between my nourishment

And your beauty

You forgot your wave

Of shame, for my cause

As soon as I landed on this earth

 

Hand in Hand

You made me sleep

On your lap

With my head high

Even though as I grew up

My head became heavy

Then the weight of your lap

I know it would have pained

A bit, but the pleasure of mine

Preceded your pain

In your mind

 

 

I know the pain

You underwent when

You lost your vision

Yet your hands were

Dexterous enough

To make me all the

Dishes which I cherished

Not even once

You expressed leave it for today

 

I sought from you

So many things

But your love to me

Was unconditional

Not sure If I am worth

To even describe you

Nor I have words enough

But the fragrance you

Have shed on me

To make me look

Attractive forever

Is unforgettable Mother
