Maa.

The personification of the whole universe in one, a mother is nature’s masterpiece.

She, the sincerest. Her love, selfless, intense form of humanly emotion to exist. She is capable of making a dying flower bloom. She loves with all her heart.

The person who was there since my heart beat the first time,
She risked her own life, to bring forth mine.
From the time our bodies were composed of a single cell, my life has been connected with hers. Its She I will forever belong to.

The heavenly figure that first caught my eyes,
She taught me how to live; how to sit and stand upright.
Once the weak, fragile and dependent human form, I owe my present grown-up state of body and mind to my first true role model, my mentor and guide. She armed me with the abilities and skills of not only speech and essential body functions, but also taught me how to behave, made me aware of my role in the society, introduced me to my morals and polished my manners, the lessons of which will lay the foundation on the future I am about to design.

For my needs she provides,
Her tiresome days, her sleepless nights.
From being the source of the first essential feed of a new-born’s life, she undertakes the role of my constant care-taker, who works round the clock to make sure I am fundamentally supplied. The superhuman who prepares my meals, nurses me in my sickness, cleans my mess, puts my necessities before her own, she truly isthe glue that holds my life together. Holds me together.

Inside her arms I confide,

Her friendship is one of a kind.
Despite my growing indifferences towards her affection as I age, she has always been there with open arms, to embrace me with all my flaws and shortcomings. Someone wholistens, understands, gives genuine advice, celebrates my happy days and cheers me on my sad ones, attempts to keep my heart from breaking and heals it once broken; I have always found a friend in maa, whose loyalty has never faltered.

Has my back in every fight,
In her strength, I take pride.
It is through my mothers’ firm belief and constant support, that I have been able to overcome my darkest fears and step out in the world in pursuit of my dreams. The first person to recognize my potentials and build my confidence, I can always rely on her to cheer me. Her willpower and endurance is an unmatched motivation, for she has stood strong against all odds for the sake of my safety and comfort.The intensity of her love purifies her fearlessly, as she courageously breaks through the societal norms and restrictions that threaten the harmony of her home.

The hardest Good-bye,
I send my love to those deprived.
Her mere presence is the warmth, the light and the direction of one’s life, the compensation for which does not exist. The misfortune of having to be distant from one’s mother, regardless of the purpose or duration, is brutally painful, and to the sufferers of this agony, I send my love.

Never asks for a dime,
She just wants to see us smile.
If to her love we have been blind,
Let’s give her back, while there is time.
I love you, Maa.
