Mummy!
The fragrance of my childhood,
Hides in the fold of your embrace.
How can I ever forget,
Swinging along with you in the neighborhood,
my little hand holding tight to yours,
Like I would never let go.

The excitement of my growth and achievement,
Appreciates your words that serve as a guidebook.
It is impossible for me to erase
Looking up to you and listening in amusement,
Grinning from ear to ear,
Like it was the best thing in the world.

Mother!
You are an ace,
As you keep up to provide a befitting livelihood.
The memories of those days,
When you gave everything up for us,
Smiling and saying 'It's a phrase',
Like you don't really matter.

The self confidence of my approaching adulthood,
Lingers in the embodiment of your virtues.
I am pretty sure that joy awaits,
To reward you for your selfless love
And adorable motherhood,
For you are etched in my life forever.

You are my beloved and my fantasy.
My love for you knows no boundary.
You made me appreciate reality.
Mom, you are my honey.
I adore you so jealously,
Like the stars in the galaxy.
