Remembering my mother on this Mother’s Day.
My mother left for her heavenly abode in 2003. But it is very fortunate for all those people who have their mother.
It is better to say a word of *APPRECIATION* to a Mother while she is with you than writing a beautiful biography about her after she left you.
*My Mother*
My mother’s love is indefinable by me with word
Nor describable on the paper in writing with my pen
Her selfless love and patient is incomparable with any one
My mother suffered in her whole life till her last breath
She was industrious, altruistic, understanding and caring
Her whole life was full of struggles, pains and tears
No diagnosable sickness suffered her for 24 years long
Yet she never whispers a word of pains and anger to any one
She thought not of her own pain and eased everybody’s pains
She taught her children to have holy fear to God
Great visions, wishes and hope on me to fulfill her dreams
She was happy as I cleared my NET Examination,
Hoping I will soon get a job and live a happy life
She was happy not because she wants money from me
But her concerned for me to have a secured life
She left for heavenly abode hoping to have better life
She is happy living in everlasting heavenly abode
But things were altered in this earthly abode;
Home sweet home turned into teary home,
Dwelling in same house has no more same sweetness
Sweet home became cold and like a deserted house
As I step into my house, always I call Mummy
But I will never uttered again the word “Mummy”
I wish to call again mummy as I enter my house
When I come back home or leave to other place
I will never hug and shake hand again with my mom
She will not welcomed and say again safe journey to me
I heard my mom’s sweet last voice on 8th December 2003;
Saying safe journey and come back with great succeed in life
She says no any parting word to me on her departure day
But she has two wishes in her life for me to be fulfilled
She wants me to get a white-color job in my life
She wants me to set up a family before she dies
My mom’s wishes could not fulfill before she died
My wishes also could not fulfill before she died
I wish if I could give even a single penny from my salary
She had sown the seed on me the security of life
Yet she will never see again the fruits she had sown
She will no harvest and taste again the fruits she had sown
My mom suffered from the sickness for twenty-four years
Yet she never revealed pains and suffering in her life
God’s wonderful patient and love reveals through her life
Her health problem would let her leave earlier this world
But God extended her life for another twenty-four years
If she would leave this world 24 years back
I would not experienced my mom’s love and patient
God had wonderful plan for her and took away
As a human being I may sobbed and regretted
Yet, I’m grateful to God for his plan for my mom
When I get a job and give my first fruit to God
My mom will be in jubilant in heavenly abode
Then will recall mom’s vision, dream and wishes
When I need prayer support, I asked my mom
She prayed for me as I come home or leave
But now it’s only a wish for me in real life
Mother!
You left me happily and peacefully
But for me time has to come to live such a life
When I need something from my dad to ask
I first to go my mummy to tell my daddy
She was a good mediator too for her children
Have I ever give you any good gift on Mother’s Day
Hope you’ll understand and forgive me for whatever
When Mother’s Day comes and people celebrate
When their children bring Mother’s Day gifts
When others sing songs for their mother as thanks giving
When others call their mothers by their names
With teary eyes I would only wish to have my mom
My unforgettable mother left this world
Yet I pray God may raise many good mothers in the world
Restoring past beautiful life with my mom is to enter a new life
I pray God may take me to heavenly abode to live with my mom
(My mother left for her heavenly abode on 12-12-2003
