Star of My Life

Star of My Life

I remember the times we sat up late,

counting the stars scattered over the nightly sky;

and every time you raised your finger asking:

"Mamma, which is the brightest? Isn't it this one?"

You would point; and I, oblivious of the stars,

for my star lives beside me; within me, making me complete,

would point laughingly at you, my son;

touching your nose lightly, I'd say:

"It's right here, for real stars are not found on the sky,

but in the hearts of their ol' mum..."

Shining brighter than ever, you dim everything else, 

as I fill my eyes with your light...

I remember,

I remember everything;

as I fade away but see you grow...

you; the star of my life.

Why do I come across such poems when I have those exact feelings in my heart. I loved this one infact I respect each and every poem written for mothers this is no exception. Beautifully expressed that moment of innocence of a child.

[Dr. YumnaKay]

This was my first attempt to write for mothers. I'm glad it came out okay. Thank you for liking. It's actually a tribute to a fellow writer here by the name of 'aLittlePain'..
So happy it touched you 😊
