Signature of Life

Mother's love, blossoms bright.
First cry of infant, hymns of might. 
Enchanting the chimes again again,
echoing the sound within the walls,
declaring our home, the best place to live in.
Heavenly lap, ensures our journey
from day of birth to end of  breathe.
I support autumn breeze
who removes old leaves, inviting new.
Smile is signature of life.
Fragrance of love better than sandal,
life shines like winter's morning dew.

Don't try to measure
the distance from birth to death.
Never forget to glow
darkness of hidden faith.
I am ready to sign to take birth after birth
to aim my cruise, collecting love from each heart.
I want to be a mirror
to reflect every smile, even after breaking into pieces.
Love is signature of soul
bridge of heart to heart.
I want to cross the river
with a sacrosanct smile without any boat.

You may not invite me,
but, my door is always open for you.
My sacrifice is broad
approaching love, digesting hate.
My toilsome effort never die,
which encourages me to march ahead.....
I want to be a mango tree,
to produce lots of fruits,
I may fail to produce mangoes,
but I will never withdraw my shade.
Sacrifice is signature of  life
to hold every heart in a single thread.
I want to gaze your garden
to sign every bud with soft golden rays.

Many deep lines, nature should never be taken for granted. Life is an open door and window to the soul. You've expressed yourself amazingly. To love and enjoy life, the best signature one can understand. Linda

Manmath, your words show such optimism and hope in the beautiful life you want to lead which most likely was fostered by the love and nurture of you dear mother. Beautifully written, keep writing, and follow your dreams! 7, Sandra
