My Children

MY CHILDREN

            The greatest bliss of my life
                    to glitter, glow and shine
                  are my lovely children:
           Two beloved daughters of mine.

       I guided my children to step forward
            while raising up and caring them.	
         My family tree started to grow
           taking older daughter as its stem.

         Older one called me ’Maa’ first time.
           The sweetest word to sooth me best.
             My children were my priority.
             Everything else came next.

           Younger one came ten years later
           When the older one was my right hand.
            As she left for higher studies,
           next day younger one held my hand.

         In their childhood, I was the light to show way.
       Being grown up both turned my grand success after all.
          Now my responsibility is over, only to watch
          daughters to prosper and to impress each and all.
