Being A Mother

She gained being a Mother,

She gained your smiles,

She gained your ranks,

She gained fame.

She lost being an Old Mother,

She lost your money,

She lost your attention,

She lost you after all.

Oh, Child! Nothing is true,

There is no gain or loss,

Being A Mother,

Because Being A Mother is not a business transaction.

She cries if you hurt,

She smiles if you smile,

She forgets her pain in your growth,

She can be ready to fight with anyone for you.

Oh, Child! Even in her last breath,

She wishes you to be happy.

In the busy world, you go out every day for survival,

You have a lot of works to complete within deadlines,

But do not forget the rough nights she has gone through,

By carrying in her womb and on her shoulders.

What makes her happy?

Your one phone call to check on her health,

Then She becomes News reader and proudly says my child is such a good one.

Your one visit to see her,

Then She becomes Local Radio channel says my child is such a good one.

Your attention to her mundane life after you left to a distant place,

Then She would stay on cloud 9.

Oh, Child! Even if you don't do these stuff,

She always says my child is a good one,

My child is a great one,

My child is a busy one,

Because she is your Mother,

Because Being A Mother is not a business transaction.

But Can you try to be a good child at least sometimes?
