Ma Raison D'être...... by amrita21

Ma Raison D'être......

Its a bond.... tied with care...
Come what may.....
A mother for her brood will always be there.....
With a sheltering glance and open arms...

I don't set rules
I follow my kids....
If they succeed in little things they do,
I appreciate....
If they don't, it's great too....

Their idle chatter makes me smile....

Each one a different flavour. ..
They give my life a twist....
They are sometimes inseparable as jelly....
Sometimes stubborn like honey....
Sometimes chatpat( a mix if tangy n spicy)as chaat.

Sometimes, a medley I don't understand
Each on a different stand.

I pause....
I look within....
I'm in a happy place.....



What beautiful happy faces! This is so wonderful, in so many ways. You are blessed!!

Amrita, I had seen this....I thought I had commented on it but I realise I didn't. Your family is lovely, your kids look so nice, sweet and goodhearted. I guess that couldn't be different from such a caring, sweet and sensitive mother. :))
