Amma Poem by Indira Renganathan

Amma

Rating: 5.0


Mother, words will not suffice
Overwhelmed am I thinking of your face
Tears deep from my heart come up
Hiding my eyes from looking you up
Efforts control me. There, memories refreshed
Remote days. Feeling the warmth of you
'Mum mum', I sucked along with ethics fed
Oh mom, my school of morals are you
Much to the 'will be' of my values
More to say as I grew on
Abundant you nurtured me to perfection
Moulded my character and wisdom of great use
Another woman of her own desires
Meaningfully is absent in you
An institution yourself of ethereal love is true
All along caring for my health and efforts
Magnanimity has been your quality
Marvellous you've been my teacher and philosopher
Amma your love is incomparable in eternal purity

Great Poem! ! Fond memories flooded back when I read it! ! How very true! Could not hold back my tears, as I became emotional! ! I remember her every day....and to think that one or two calls everyday was the tonic that I needed to keep myself motivated...and courageous to face the enormous challenges that I face everyday and continue to face even now! ! Amma, your sweet, kind face keeps coming before my eyes..and it si your memories that have kept me going! !
