Behind The Sun

Mother...

Your dark eyes that reflect trust and honesty

      Like a scrupulous documentary

Your tangle of dusky curls cropped short

      So lively when you smile angelically

Your vulnerable features

      That compliment the glow of your convectional beauty

Your warm hugs radiating benevolence

      So benign and cautious by nature

Your vital lessons

      Play such fundamental value in my life

Your wise words

      Shall remain unscathed in my heart

Oh mother!

      You signify the woman species because of your own unique greatness

Words are too little

      For me to explain how great of importance you are to me

I appreciate your unfailing love till the end

      That's why it's a woman like you i hope someday to be

There is a strong aura of divine favour

      It implies the God fearing woman you are

Every cloud has a silver lining

     Bravery and faithfulness are your ways of shining

I adore the way you protect me and hide me under your wings

      Like a hen does to her chicks from the very start

Mum, i know i have outgrown your laps

      But it's certain i will never outgrow your heart

I am forever grateful for the way you've taught me to hope for the best

      And in the same way thankful because you have prepared me for the worst.
