I Shalt Always Be With Thou

A woman once was ignored; Neglected by me, On arrival of new bride; Photo in my purse, Now was replaced by my wife; Came to my rescue, When I was in desperate need; Though I forgot, Spent days and nights with her; Forgot her birthday too; Yet she failed never in life, kissing me, my spouse and kids, In all my auspicious days; A day when came, Doctor said thy life is short Kidney failure in critical stage; All were shocked, But none could help; Mama too stood by my side, Holding my hand; Eyes were wet, Rolling tears from her eyes; The drops solaced my soul, But depth of her pain I could feel; She said once, yes only once, Oh my God, Why this to my blood? Shalt see to it, Thou live to care of thy kids; I bore thou for nine months, I gave thou birth; Can't endure, A tiniest pain of thou, Tortures my heart; Why I to live without my son...; When gaining conscious, Spouse handed in my arms, A letter hand written by mom; "It's my day, mother's day, Though leaving this world, I shalt always be with thou; Stay attached as saviour mom; My blessings to thou my son, Shalt still be with you; Thou may live, As long as Sun and Earth"; © sadashivan nair
