for my darling baby

-
8 years ago , on this very day
on a chilly winter morning
My lap was adorned with a frail little baby
My darling daughter
My first born who called me ‘mamma’
Me the mamma was born the same day
She is still the same sweet, stubborn and
innocent little girl
I wish her all the joys in the world
I wish her all the strength and endurance and smartness
to face this world successfully
I wish her the best of the world
I am thankful to God for having given me
A smiling, innocent and loving daughter
May be I don’t express my love often enough
May be I am a bit too strict
One day she would read these lines
And would know how much I loved you
My darling daughter
Happy birthday dear once again, May God bless you
with his choicest blessings today and always
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY…….

From Mamma

    What a sweet poem!! I've been reading it again & again ever since you posted this.

    I just read your comments on my blog. Even your comments are written so thoughtfully & so beautifully. I am so touched. When I started blogging, I never thought that I would connect with another mother like this, a mother I haven't even met. I am so glad that I found a person like you!

    Rekha,

    Now I remember! It was your blog about "Disorderly pulse" that got me hooked to your blog. It was like somebody was reflecting my thoughts!

    Keep the posts coming!

Nature - My childhood friend

This is not a work of fiction, but it seems so, even to me who is the one who has experienced it all.  My memory of all that is being written here seems to have happened in some other life time, but all of it happened when I was 4 or 5 years old, but still the pictures are so vivid and so real in my mind like I am watching a techni colour HD movie or as if I am still there when I am writing it all down.  I say it is not fiction because of the tremendous  nature’s bounty and beauty and companionship that I experienced at that time  seems so unreal even to me. Let me start with the morning, yes, so the morning started with me the 5 year old running from bed straight to the verandah and sitting on the steps of the verandah (of my house which was in a small town of Kerala), the steps leading to the courtyard, it looking all clean  with fresh marks of broom which looked like half circles made over and over again on the brown earth. Sitting on the steps I l...
