| Mother's arms - the safest and cosiest place anywhere |
Right from the very first few seconds of my life when I breathed, I could feel your heart's song -- "Forever I will hold you" -- as you took me into your arms and welcomed me with a tender kiss;
As you fed me, you also were feeding my heart and my soul.
As I cried through the nights, forcing you awake many a sleepless nights, you tirelessly cradled me gently in your soft arms, cooing and smiling, singing me a lullaby and instinctively I was comforted by your presence by my side.
You smiled at me as I clung to you, my eyes peering up at your divine face and my itsy-bitsy fingers reaching out to grasp your finger as I yawned sleepily with a peaceful grin, drifting off into a dreamland.
But as I have woken up, why do I find myself no more a child?
Why did I ever grow up into a man so soon? Why did I ever come out of your arms? I feel so out of place here in this bustling multitude, this constant hurry, this need to have more, in pursuit of worldly dreams and treasures...
When did the years flow by?
When did my clumsy steps turn into strides and then into a run? Why did I ever learn to walk, Mummy? Why did I ever grow up?
As I toss and turn in bed each night against the pillow, why do I no more find the stars skipping out to play in the sky, in my dreamland?
Let me lay my head on your lap, Mummy... sing me your Lullaby and put me to sleep once again to the serene calm of your melody...
(My divine angel hugged me as I sobbed... she unfolded her silvery wings and took me across the sky, singing me her Lullaby).
And I realised yet again how unconditionally you have always loved me; that if ever I crumble, you would still fix me together, piece by piece, very patiently and tenderly, with your divine touch and love.
Because your heart still cries if I ever cry...
Because for you, I have always been a part of you...
Because for me, you are my God-Mother.
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY EVERY SINGLE DAY...
