MOTHER'S DAY

MOTHER'S DAY

Who can replace mother?

The one to daily discover

Full of endless surprises

Where love continuously rises

There is warmth in the thought

Feelings deep, not taught

Of the holding and feeding

For you she has done some bleeding

There is affection on high

The sort that makes you cry

Generally they are cold tears

Emotions far from technofears

She will always say, "My Baby"

Even when you are agey

Now, Anna Jarvis had this to say

"There must be a Mother's Day"

Inaugurated in the year 1914

To honour all moms as routine

A worthy notion and gesture

Sadly, Anna observed its conjecture

For no one should commercialize

An event meant to internalize

One to digest, to reflect

To make that meaningful connect…

…In memory or in deed

Mother's life changed when came the seed

She became a happy carrier

Our indebtedness has no barrier

She was with you in your first bed

You can be there when she lie dead

Though always alive in mind

Will there ever be someone so kind?

– By Bhaktimarga Swami
