LOVE YOU MOM

I opened my eyes, your Face was the most beautiful thing to see... Radiant, Serene... In that instant, You became the First Love of my Life... 

I stretched my hands, to feel your Warmth... You Embraced me in your arms... I tasted Heaven on this earth...Wrapped in the utmost Bliss...

I tried in vain, to sleep on my own... You stroked my hair, pulled me on your Lap... Your Soft Humming in my ears, lulled me to my Dreamland...

I took a step forward, my first attempt to walk... You came Running to hold my hand... Your Support made me stand straight... And I walked without Fear...


I scribbled on my notebooks... You made me sit by your side... You Recited poems, Drew Flowers for me... I learned the pleasure of Reading...

I was a nuisance at the Dinner table... You got up early... You took the pain of cooking Delicacies for me... Everyday, without fail... I enjoyed the Best Food on this earth...


I came back from the school, eyes wet with tears... You understood I had a fight... You remained silent, and made me rest on your Shoulder... Your silence Comforted my Soul...


I told you a lie... You got me at the very moment... You scolded for my behavior... I became angry... You Reasoned with me... I never repeated the mistake in my life...

I packed my bags for the hostel... I got frightened at the thought of leaving home... You told me Stories how you fought with adversities... I became Brave...


I came to a new city... Unknown of what's in store for me there... I got confused... I called you up... You Advised ways to work out things... I felt Home...

I felt lonely, missed You all the while...You rushed to my place, just to be my Company... I felt happy with the thought of Having the Best Gift sent to me by God...

Ma, You are always there for me at every footstep. Be it a happy moment, or a tear-filled one. Be it my mistake, or I am being wronged upon. Each time I look around me, You are the first person standing by my side. THANK YOU for being my Friend, Philosopher and Guide. THANK YOU for being such a lovely Mother. THANK YOU for being 'You'. 



(Dedicated to my first love -  my Beautiful Mother.....................)

BIRTHDAY BASH.............. :)

Three days back was my li'l sister's birthday. That small kid who used to roll up on my belly and tickle me hard, turned fifteen last Thursday. As usual, I took all the responsibilities of arranging a small party for her. My first priority was to get the most suitable gift for her. I raked my brain hard, and then thought of buying pearl earrings. Then I ordered a chocolate cake for her, which is the most favorite thing in her life :). I invited all her friends and our relatives for a small get together. On the big day, leaving a 'Happy Birthday' message on my sleeping beauty's aka sister's cell, I started off early for my office. My intention was to finish off with my work quickly and leave the office early. Hopefully, everything went smooth, and I was done with all my work by the afternoon itself. I took a cab and returned home. On the way I also picked up a Jumbo-sized, musical greeting card from Archies .


As I reached home, my mother was already well prepared with all the home-made Delicacies for the guests. My father followed shortly after me, carrying the cake and goodies. Everything was set. The house was nicely decorated by lights, wall hangings, frills and balloons. My sister looked like an angel in the new dress she was wearing, and with my newly gifted pearl-drops on her ear. Soon the guests started coming in good number. The environment was filled with laughter and merriment. Everything went nicely. My angel got a lot of gifts to keep her busy with. Food was the best part of that evening. Everyone returned to their homes with a big smile on their face. 

The party was a grand success. All my efforts to make my dearie little sister happy, actually rewarded me back in a good way.  :)
