You And She Both Are Moms… One Gave Me Birth; One Raises To Let Live In World Poem by Sadashivan Nair

You bore seed in womb,
Waited for first glimpse of me,
Gave a chance to live in world,
Gave a chance to embrace
Lush beauty of this world;
The other raises me,
Though she is maid;
Takes me to her lapel,
One breast for me,
One breast for her son,
Adorns advances by me,
Enjoys my first walk,
Adores my first talk;
Fondles me when I weep,
Brolly in thundery rain,
Shade in blazing sun,
She sleeps by my side,
In embroidered bed,
Made by her;
Hugs me gives her warmth,
I am asleep before you come,
I am asleep when you go;
You and she both are moms…
One gave me birth;
One raises to let live in world;
