What would we do without our ammas??????
My mother,as far as I remember,was always on her toes,
She was the perfect hostess,a ready listener to all our woes.
While I struggle every day to meet the demands of a daughter lone,
She handled us siblings five,cleaned,cooked and attended the phone.
Even today when Shreya is all praise for the so-called 'yummy' food I cook,
I long and crave for my mom's cooking which was beyond any recipe book.
My mom, a simple un-assuming lady,showed her iron will and strength,
When dear dad was diagnosed with cancer,she supported him and did not her
despair vent.
despair vent.
Her social life was limited , duty to family was her call,
She and my dad together taught us to bear lifes' fall.
What can I give my mother who gave me roots and wings,
Even the most expensive gift is nothing compared to what a mother gives!
