The beating heart cries
The beating heart cries
For a beloved mother true,
That the Almighty Artist drew
Even as a divine soul dies
Never was a father created so nice
On the earth and in the heavens blue
His love is eternal and sustaining through
Brimming like an ocean that never dries
Nine months plus of loving care begins
Years of guidance and support to follow
Father's heart melts even as he grins
Mother's love seems matchless in flow
Words of truth, God I do not mince
Tears unabated rush forth as mother lets go
About this poem
