In the
nights of agony, you were my solace
Your comforting
words Maa, led the flame burning!
All my
fears, inhibitions disappear, the moment I think of you,
I know we
all have to walk our own path,
but thanks Maa for being my torch-bearer
I know, my
restlessness always worried you, still you never showed,
“Come on,
you can do it”- this is what you roared.
You know
Maa, my friends say that I am so tough,
They que up
to take my advice and call me to solve their problems,
That very
vulnerable and sensitive girl inside me peeps out and applauds-
and I can
imagine your face brimming with pride & joy,
I chuckle to
myself ‘Ah! What a transformation’!
You nurtured
me with rich values and ethics,
You taught
me to trust, when the whole world seemed despicable,
You taught
me to be compassionate and to love,
I believe,
this has really worked,
I can let go
hard feelings so easily, and I can breathe...
I breathe to
be free, I breathe to be at peace, I breathe to live my passion.
I am able to
stand up for myself and for the things I feel is right,
Nothing can
crumble my self-believe, nothing can deter my confidence,
I am no more
brittle, nothing can break me down,
I breathe to
aspire what I desire, I breathe for my “continuous evolution”
I promise
Maa, I will always keep my conscience alive
See Maa, I
am growing up and have grown up all these years,
I’ve captured
my doubts, I have fought with my weaknesses,
I’ve followed
my dreams and have explored into my strengths….
Really Maa,
your cocooned caterpillar is slowly growing into a butterfly,
A butterfly with
spread out wings and multiple colours of life.
Maa, now you
can heave a sigh of relief, just sit back and see me flying….
Thanks Maa!
Trust me, you have done a good job J
Kudos to you,
Love You,
Your baby J
