Mama

Mamma, your beautiful eyes blaze

Just like a spark of the fire

From this moist meadow to the stretching hills

Watching every act of mine so curiously.

I ran to you those days

Just to hold you near possessively.

I was shy, I stood behind you

To gaze at this world fearlessly.

I love those old photographs

Where you hold me near so passionately

I wish I could go back

To roam around you innocently.

You turned me bold, you made me strong

To stand and fight till my last

You wiped my gently sloping tears,

You soothed my little wounds 

You stitched my wings to fly around.

I laughed and teased when you cried

I held your fingers days and nights,

I circled around you and you stood fearless.

You were there every time for me

To laugh at my stupid jokes,

To appreciate me for my little trophies

And to shout at me for my carelessness.

I loved those fairy tales,

Those stories you made me anxious.

I remember that little staircase 

Where you got mad at my questions.

You were my world Mamma.

You walked down to my little planet

To hear my school stories and lies.

You smiled at me patiently 

When you were about to ran away from life

You kept mum and held me tight

When you were helpless in some stages of life

You kept my silly secrets and promises,

You advised me equations and solutions 

For they are the greatest treasures of my life.

The times I criticized you most
I loved you all the more

I fought with you for my jealousy and anger

For I smile at those beautiful moments we had.

You never asked me to do something

You always loved whatever I did

Mamma I love you, I love you so much.

This is for you Beena....I love you ! ( I said it :P)
