Momma's Note...

Your never ending letters and notes expressing “Mom, I love you. Because you love me, you cooks for me, you play with me, you are my best friend…” sheds light on me making me smile and laugh even in bitter times. Your endless prattle, constant nagging, mischievousness, impulsiveness and emotions leave me helpless, tears.

Sometimes I cuddle you in Joy,

At times I crush you in despair…

Yet, none can understand you better than I do because you are my tot. As you celebrate your birthday tomorrow ( 10/12/10 ) I wish you grow up like a titan and keep smiling, be innocent and cheerful as always you are. I admire you for the way you shower eternal love and care on each and everyone; irrespective of friends or strangers. I am proud of your selfless nature and sharing outlook. And yes, the name Krishna suits you the best.

I am an infant mom and I wish to be the same forever so that I can learn from you.

Love,

Amma.

The Submit

( An attempt to write instant verses )

The blot in heaps,

The knot in deep,

A lot she weeps,

And in hope she sleeps.

In hot she bleeds,

A lot she pleads,

The jot in screeds,

And in rope she sleeps..
