I lost her when I was very young,
How do I reminisce about her,
She is a vague and distant memory
There’s nothing distinct that I remember
She is only a concept – just a notion divine,
A mere idea of an angelic being
Someone, who for a while , cared for me,
Even now, for me she is praying
Now, when I, myself am a mom
I know what a mother goes through
The children also reciprocate,
They respect and love you
Hence I perceive the emotions
I have for my offspring
I know that my mother also
Must have been loving and caring
As they say, God realized,
He couldn’t be everywhere,
To designate his duties
He, then, created a mother

It’s a very beautiful poem!
It’s a beautiful touching poem. Nothing can be more heart rending than a child losing his/her mother at a tender age when he/she needs her loving care the most.
Nice!
Compassion – thy name is mom!
You’re right in saying that God created mother for HE may not be present everywhere to shower love and affection on the humans all the time!
One being a mother can only truly visualize motherhood and its manifestations cent per cent!
And about others?
They experience physically from what they get in their lifetime from childhood!
No parallels to equate with motherhood!
