Depth


 

To measure the Depth

Of a mothers love is a task uphill

As  she herself knows it not, still

Till the blossoms on her branch 

Face a threat 

(Even a cough or sneeze 

Are threat enough!)

Woe betide anyone else! 

****‘

The tears often come faster

The fears she does not master 

The years of struggles

The nights of drudges

All talk of a Depth untold

And as  yet unplumbed

The bond ne’er falters

The depth ne’er alters!

****

To measure the Depth

Of a mothers love is a task uphill

The bond ne’er falters

The depth ne’er alters

****

    Oh. There are some things that cannot be measured. 🙂 Depth of a mother’s love is one such. She may not know it herself, yes, but infinity doesn’t really have a value on it, does it? 😀
