A Song for my daughter....


Little one...when you come to this world..come with a fire in your belly and twinkle in your eye...
Its a cruel world...Its a magical world too...
there are elephants and there are mice in this world
there are nights under the stars..and then there are nights with nothing but the smell of tears on your pillow and empty beds...
But you are in my heart twinkling like a diamond on my finger
you are the courage in my heart
you are the blood and bone that will live on much beyond all these little tragedies of my life
My little one...its easy to forget..but never forget...you are the little piece of life that is greater than these large imposing powers around.
You are the little spark that is sharper than these defeated souls
Be Brave when you are here
Never loose your wonder my little one..you have generated that is the heart of a lost soul long before you came in this world...
I miss you little one...Come into this world for a great reason...
Come to meet your mother one day...

Reminds me of a french movie i saw long back, of an expecting mother who talks to her child all through her pregnancy, not sure whether she wants to keep her or not...

Gorgeous tribute! Loved it!

makes me wonder why do we always think that the mother has the power to choose the child...
what if the child decides....
what swould one do to woo children?

At last a woman speaks from her heart. A soft and a tearful ode to womanhood. A mother talking to her daughter, begging her to keep her innocence even though the world has failed the mother long back. A mother warning of all the rough roads ahead. Reminds me of my mother choosing a spot to beat me. Trying to hit where it hits the less.
The best emotions of a woman are stored for her children. It makes me feel as if they profess fake love to men to have their ultimate goal, the last love, their true love.
