You came to me as
blessings ,
A charming little bundle of joy.
Spent my time, loving, caressing,
Handling you as a
Precious toy.
With the passage of time,you grew up dear,
First a child, then a young girl,
With your sense and wisdom
You stunned me,
Your beautiful nature,
You did unfurl.
Now…
I keep looking from a distance,
At an 'individual' , creator of her domain...
A daughter, a wife ,now a mother
Today you are a complete woman.
May God keep you strong and wise,
Charming, sensible and without fear.
I shall keep glowing
With the pride,
You instilled in your Mother... dear.
