MOTHER
Years don’t distort,
Time doesn’t warp,
Lifetime doesn’t blot,
As mother’s priceless memory,
Always remains atop.
*
Even when I know you’re not there,
Yet there is always something,
That tells me,
You’re somewhere here and somewhere there,
For my life and for my care.
*
In the measure of time,
You carried me up to cloud nine,
Then cradled me with all the rhymes,
You fed me to grind,
And taught me to shine.
*
My maiden friend,
The first to comprehend,
My lifelong mentor,
And evergreen centre.
*
In the shackles of time
You were always mine,
But when shackles unshackled,
God took you away in no time.
*
And since you’ve gone
Life is bereft of umpteen charms,
But the soul connect is still alive,
That revives the vibes
And that’s how life thrives.
*
Of all you taught me,
Each virtue is still fresh,
I May have forgotten school,
But you’re still afresh.
*
As time passes,
More of it comes along,
Just like your loving memories,
That keeps coming on and on.
*
Ma you’ll never fade,
You’ll always shine like the jade,
As long as I live,
And even beyond my days.
*
