Oh! Mother Poem by Narayanan Nair. P Perunthanam

Oh! Mother



Neglected Mother
Mother is mom-mum-, at times
A burning fragrant ‘Sandal Stick'.
Idol of sacrifice.

Be a cow, a hen, a bee, suffice,
Lovely mother protects all
In her splendid office.

Sweet mom is like a cradle
Sways with a baby and bridle
An enigmatic riddle.

Till still, be a Gandhari, or a Kunthi
All encompassing Spirit neglected;
Does she get due respect?

Note: 1) Gandhari; Mother of Kauravas.,2) .Kunti: Mother of Pandavas in MahaBharata War.

We sadly ignore or overlook a mother's sacrifice and later repent a life time! ! Fortunate are those who express due love and concern for the mother while she is alive! ! Agreat tribute to all mothers! !

Really a tribute to our mothers in general in spite of the shade of concern... A mother has no substitution ever.
