Short of words for my darling!!

Happy2be · Feb 2, 2012

Another sunrise and I leap to see your face
Awww...you're so pretty...so peaceful in sleep
a hug is what I have , early morning with daily word
Good Morning sweety pie...Sun God is here!!
I wish to see your li'll smile and the sweet voice cumin back
Ahhh...lemme sleep...comes back with a rash cry
each mornin..same story..same promise I make
Be patient..dont shout..she's just a child
Good morning baby..and I make you look forward to the day
remind you of the excitements waiting to cum your way
count you your blessings and give you sweet smiles
tick-tock-tick-tock...time is running by..
few to many..minutes go by and so does my patience to not make you cry
each day I teach myself what not to do
each day I recall my lessons how to treat you
Hardly ever would you get up without me being firm
so starts the day and my daily bash
a quest for a Mum...
that hour makes me struggle with time and my love
I wish to sit idle just chatting with you
just listening your stories, the fairies you find true
it wud be the same for each Mum on earth
thats what I tell me, Be Soft and Be Firm
I'm soft and you take advantage
I'm firm and you weep
And your mighty Dialogues..sweep me off my feet
your daddy suggests me..leave her that way
she'll grow up like all...she'll grow up your way
My way is not what I want...TIME is i'm greedy for
I see those years that have passed by
I miss you giggles and falls, li'll fingers holding mine
My girl's growing fast...I can't miss a day
each day is so precious to take happy moments away
Small issues morning to night
small fights and then big hugs tight...
days..months and years passing by.

Very true lines and very nice narration. Had a good feel with the thought of my daughter.

Dear Happy2be,

i felt so emotional reading your lines, how true each and every line is.. seriously any mom would realise the feel that you had conveyed in your poem.. Its so wonderful!!

Thanks shanvy, priya and brb... I truly feel its our kids who make us treasure our parents..make us trust them much more than ever we did in those young yrs when we really needed to follow their guidance. I wonder why God made us..humans such that we realise when time is gone...no doubt, it gives all mums a sense to bring up their child better ..but then again..each next generation is two steps ahead Our parents used to tell us - we were not like you in your age...now may be we feel the same but me and DH promise ourselves not to repeat those lines to DD..if we were so as kids, by nature she too has the right to be and we will have to be near her age to understand her better...no school or college studies had ever been that demanding and challenging as I find the art of learning parenthood !!
I'm sure each mother faces such incidents many times in a single day when she wonders later - may be I could have behaved or reacted in a better way...Cum'on Mums..lets share such incidents and learn from each other..lets together build a healthy platform for kids and a happy motherhood for ourselves...

Hi Happy2be,

Very true and emotional !!!!

I had tears in my ears thinking of my daughter growing older day by day.

Everyday i also make the same promise to not shout @ my daughter....but fail to keep up my promise :-(

Regards,
Vidya

Yes...time runs...I miss her when she's off to school...I feel work time in office is killing my hours with her...so I left work and shifted to house...my work came down from 6 hours to 2-3 hrs a day..but I am satisfied bringing her up myself...taking care of her food..her clothes..her hygiene...her activities...but there's way lot to handle than all this for a mother And I think a Mom can never be satisfied of what she is able to do for her kids.
