Motherly Love
Tik tok goes the clock
With each set of time
Her energetic vibrant being
turns frail
She who i'll never call by her name
In retrospect,she raged
Against this decadent diabolical world
She raged to give her bairns the best of life,
The tenderness of her infinite love
In equal measure we give our allegiance
Albeit in absence of economic strength
We never went to sleep with growling tummies
Neither did we walked bare and unstitched
And the coldest of the nights went by unperceived
Even in her recurrent nostalgia phase
I still see her
The sailor who weathered the storms for me
The soldier who fought my unseen battles
The angel that brougt tranquility within in the dead of the night
In all eternal divine
Through her brisk and lethargic life
I hold her in my warm embrace
My fourth god
My begetter.
