Mother - A Poem on Mother .....

Mother

Strong and soft,

Tough and tender,

Creator’s delight,

Beholder’s wonder

Embodied beauty –

That’s Mother,

Embodies life –

That’s Mother !!

Delicate and distinct,

Malleable and mild,

Strength unlimited,

Support undeterred,

Unbreakable, unbeatable –

That’s Mother,

Empowered by the Divine –

That’s Mother !!

Lovely poem on a universal topic. A mother is center stage in our world.

My Didi ji.

I have written about 60 poems on mothers and there's still an eternal pit to full. Love and sacrifice ... love and sacrifice. Noble theme!

Namasthe Vanithaji, such a wonderful tribute to a Mother. Unbreakable, undeterred, strength unlimited, delicate...You have packed in so much emotion in so few words akin to a mother. Kudos.

Chitrangada Sharan from New Delhi, India on October 01, 2020:

Beautiful expressions. As you say, it’s difficult to define relationships in words, and most difficult to describe the Mother. As they say, a mother can fit into every possible role, but it’s not possible to fit into the role of a mother.

Thanks for sharing this beautiful poem.
