You came into this world

My lovely daughters

A pink bundle with curly black hair

I looked at you helplessly and wondered

How do I care for you ?

So small, so sweet so vulnerable were you

My bewildered eyes looked

At your face and your delicate lips

Blossomed into

A mysterious smile

“What did your smile say?” I marveled

It said, “I am a miracle

It said, “I am a mystery”

It said, “I am your future”

It said, “I am your soul”

It said, “I am here to change your world, watch out!”

Your wail was sweet song to my ears,

But people shrieked, “you will be

A giver to your daughters all your life!”

“Who is a giver? Me or you ?”

Today after fifteen years

I am wiser, my darling daughters,

And know, you are the giver,

And I the taker

You give me a smile,

My eyes feel blessed

In seeing your pretty innocent face

You give me a hug,

My heart takes pride

In being the mother of  lovely children

You give me a kiss

My soul is drenched

With complete joy and eternal bliss

I Cut my finger

You rush to my aid

And cry, “Does it hurt ma ?”

“No dear not when you are there”

You chatter ,your pranks, your laughter

Has changed my world forever together

Now I know the meaning of

That strange smile

You gave me the day you were born

My lovely daughters

You are the light of my life

May you be a light to this world!

Oh, my precious gift from god.
