“Rising Star of life” : A Mother’s Day Poem
You are the candle that gives light freely.
Outcasts of life come to you and rest.
You adorn yourself with ornaments from nature.
All the stars receive beauty from your touch.
Angels learn peace and live
in the place where your moon greets the sun.
You are the candle of light that gives freely,
the river where breath is life;
the origin of billion small creatures:
Children of your own, whose cords of life
are sustained by your power.
In small steps, they crawl to your bosom
to see the dawn of another day,
the hope beyond the highest star above.
You are the candle of light that gives freely,
the crossroad where wisdom learns the tricks of life;
a purple passion vine adorned with the incense of the world.
Rough winter winds turn into ocean delight,
and melody of life that moves according to your beats:
gently to the left, gracefully to the right…
with tender kiss and love to the unending sound of your heart.
On this day, I would like to say Happy Mother’s Day to all Mothers and Mothers-in-the making!
