(Dear Mothers: I submit this poem at your feet as a mark of my love and respect for all the mothers; bless your son from wherever you are) <br /> <br />Not salaried for the full-time job <br />But mother, my love is the payment <br />When I was born <br />You were also born <br />Removing the woman in you <br />And installing the Mother thereby <br />Nothing is absolute <br />Except your love so pure <br />Nothing follows me <br />Except your prayers <br />That cling to me all my life <br />You started dieting <br />When I was afflicted <br />I will wear the sweater <br />When you feel the cold <br />You are the carrier of the key <br />Of my soul in your bosom <br />Your heart is an abyss <br />At its bottom is forgiveness <br />An ounce of you <br />Is worth my thousand lifetime <br />You always think twice <br />One for you and the other for me <br />I wonder at evolution <br />How come you have two hands only? <br />You are my perennial song <br />In the heart of my comfort <br />I may not comprehend the words <br />But the tune of love is engraved <br />I love you mother <br />As plants love water and Sun <br />Words are small <br />To show my heart <br />Allow me to cling <br />To your feet, the altar of love <br /> <br />11.5.2008 <br />mothers’ day<br /><br />rajagopal haran<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/175-to-mothers-with-love/
