mother : the purest of all

mother
flying down to earth
i wondered what's in the offing
from things i heard
i felt it not so good
i came down on earth and
roamed roamed and roamed
only to find
only to find
people infatuated with money
unmindful of thier destiny and fate
each was off from his late bed
each was off on errands
- hectic and routine
some would kill themselves
some would kill others
some would laugh thier
hearts away
at the misery and
state of their brothern
each in pursuit of money
unmindful of god and his word
baffled me
puzzled me
drove me mad
when i was about to fly back
i heard a child cry
on a mother's back
who was restless in
plucking the green ones
each time heaving and sighing
at their fate
at a time she
lookd after both of them
her child and
the child of god
patient as himself
pure as himself
she bent on trees
with the child on her back
what a creation indeed!
i prowled around to find watch
the purified one
the glorified one
_____________ the mother!


from the morn up before the others
carefully attending to needs of every one
busy without a sigh
without a sign of stress
forgetting herself
and for the future of little ones
she would throttle the
wrath of god
with a will so great
she would fight like a lioness
when the world, bad and stealthy
cast their evil eye on the little ones
she would protect them
with care
that you thought you saw
Him in her
before that mother
i kneeled and said
o' purest of all ! it's you
the cause of good here
it's you the purest of beings here
it's you the form of god here
please accept my prayer
for god said so often
that he resides in
purest of souls
but where he could go to stay
but in you
.........in YOU!
