Maa, come sit beside me and spend some time
Do not go worrying about washing and drying
Years will come and go by with a hush
Slow down Maa, there’s no rush
The childhood of mine spent in your lap
And now an adult I am, time defines the gap
I miss your lullaby, the monsters you would shush
Slow down Maa, there’s no rush
Late waking up one day is fine
And we can go out one day and dine
You have a life don’t you dare crush
Slow down Maa, there’s no rush
Your smile is what means most to us
A hug from you straightens all we trust
A day of gossips and old memories we brush
Slow down Maa, there’s no rush
Your family came first and later your dreams
But your happiness and joys only beamed
Pursue them now, any obstacles you must flush
Slow down Maa, there’s no rush
Your life is a lesson, a perfect one we so proudly call now
We know the sacrifices you made, loved when we were outrageous and how
You need to slow down not for us but for you, because it is the Mom’s turn
A life you have lived for us now it is your time to do for what you yearned.
We, at Wowral dedicate this poem to the mothers who work endlessly to make the ends meet, who give up their desires to fulfill their children’s, who are awake all night and make coffee while their sons study for the exam, who know nothing about the football yet cheer for their daughters, who might not be too well studied but find all solutions for dad’s problems.
To the woman in you mothers, we salute you!
Happy Mother’s Day!
