May I Ask You?

May I ask you;

                How you came in this world?

When Mum was being impatient;

                Unable to bear the pain!

It eventuated like a miracle;

                When she heard your first cry!

Your tiny legs relieved her;

                She could all went to cuddle up!

Your soft hands expressed her victory;

                Her struggle against wrath was over!

You were exposed to this beautiful world;

                Bringing blessing along!

When you were an infant;

                She was at your disposal;

Without caring day or night

                She attended your every need!

You started growing;

                She was there in dark stormy nights!

Bringing closer to her breast, she fed you;

                And eases you sleep peacefully!

You turned into a school boy

                And her fight against odds continued..

Leaving childhood, you entered youth;
                 She waited for you support! 

You were busy with college and friends;

                  And created your own world!

 She did not say but only waited;

                   That you will spend time with her!

          

Day passed too soon;

                 And you became a professional!

Occupied, ambitious and ignorant;

                  You remain entangled!

You found your love;

                   And life shined upon you!

She then waited for your company;

                  But it never happened!

May I ask you why;

                   You took her for granted?

Don’t tell me because;                                  

                   She was your Mother!
