By Monalisa Kariyana
My mother, my pillar of strength
The strongest person I know
Ready to step into the unknown
Whenever trouble comes to the surface
My mother, my best teacher
Taught me how cruel life can be
But never to bow down on any difficulty
For I am a Queen, God fearing as I can be
My mother, my best friend
Bonded by an umbilical cord for nine months
Nurtured by love my whole life
We’re telepathic, read each other’s minds
My mother, my replica
So similar, you’re my mirror
I’ve learnt just by watching you everyday
Cliché but I adore you mom
Heaven knows I am extremely grateful
You’re such a gem of a soul
To have as my mentor
And with that I say
Happy mother’s Day
