AssalamuAlaykum
A number of beautiful gifts
All wrapped into one
Presented at the start of life
We learn to cherish this bond
Falling with us
During those first tentative steps
Crying when seeing the hardships
That life threw at us next
Moulding us lovingly
To be a picture of perfection
To live in this world
With love and affection
Hers was that silent Du'aa
That never went unheard
Those precious moments of joy
After whatever the world had hurled
The only place to go
When you felt it was all going wrong
The only arms you needed
When learning to be strong
All these gifts and so much more
In one way or another
We are blessed with
In the beautiful form of 'mother'
