Mother's love

After the daily toil

I find myself in my mother's lap

I do my experiences unfoil

Before I used to have a nap

A mother is the absolute place of comfort

To forget about the bitter happenings of life

A feeling of that sort

Will one never acquire anywhere else

I share with her things of pain and sorrow

She comforts me again and again

She aspires me of the morrow

And says "no pain no gain"

The happenings that give me joy

I share with her always

Like a child happy to see his toy

I'm happy and enjoy with her always

O God I thank you for a mom like this

Tis true 'bout the saying

That God couldn't reach everywhere

And that's why He created mothers.

It's been nearly 21 years since I wrote this, my first ballad. Amature as it looks, it conveys the message.

But the Bible says "Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you!" Very difficult to comprehend such a mother right? But there are such mother's too in this world. What if death seperates your mother's love? Even then God's love is that He promises to never forget you.

It is immediately after this God says "I have engraven you in my palms"

Just like Paul who says "I am convinced that Nothing can seperate us from the love of God." Be rest and assured my dear one.

"It is underneath me. All around me."

Just like Samuel Trevor Francis who realized this love on the bridge of River Thames where he had stationed to jump and commit suicide.

This world's love is futile. It can go only till death. But the love that covers a multitude of sins is there for eternity for the very definition of God-  is Love.
