Happy Mother's day

Unconditional is her love, in varied forms it tends to appear

In the delicacies that she cooks, that you get on the platter

The midnight oil that she burns during your exam days

The warm smile on her face that forever stays

The sleepless nights that she spends when you call out sick

The patience she shows when you play those mischievous tricks

She was once as young as you, let’s not forget

For she too had dreams, giving up those for you she never regrets

The moment you entered her life, her priorities changed

Being your teacher, therapist, friend, her roles ranged

Giving you the best in life was her ultimate goal

In you she put her mind and soul

You are now grown up ready to take on the world

Chasing your dreams with your wings unfurled

Selfless that she is, she will just wish you the very best

Though she knows, all she is now left with is an empty nest

Busy as you become accumulating the material wealth

She still religiously prays for your happiness and health

Show her how you have fared well, not just in trade but as a person

Make her proud of her immaculate creation
