MOTHER
(Dedicated to mother Syeda Sarfaraz Fatima Nashtar Khairabadi )

My mother
She is an aroma
That permeates all
my senses
She is a vision
That assumes all
shapes
She is a melody
That soothes me
forever
She is a spring
That flows eternally
I fondly remember
her melodies
And many acts of
kindness
Through health and
sickness
She was there
Through joy and
sorrow
She was there
Many a time she
mended my broken heart
Many a time she corrected
my flawed thoghts
Many a time she
pulled me from the abyss of life
And encouraged me to
scale the heights
As a baby I found
refuge in her lap
As a toddler I
walked with her finger
As a young woman I
found the compass of life from her
In the twilight of
her life
Fuelled by fond
memories
I served her
And in that service
found joy
That surpassed any Paradise
Oh mother! that golden days are gone
You are no more with
us
Your memories make
us sad
Your sweet
smile,your loving guide
Always give us
strength
Brighten our days
Lighten our ways
You are always in
our prayers.
