Mother an ocean of love 

Fr Dr P S Varghese

Often heard about the word 
"Ocean of love !"
Undoubtedly, every mother is an 
"Ocean of love."

Immensely enriched experiences:
by the tender touch, 
by scolds wrapped with love,
by prayers wet with tears,
by the sacrifices made for each child,
Never can be forgotten.

Ocean is so deep,  
So is Mother's love,
Deeper than any ocean! 
Ocean always speaks to the shore 
with never ending tides.
An expression,
Uncomfortable for every tourist. 
But continues in it's own rhythm.

But every ocean is so calm 
in the midsea,
More than the vessels, 
Every captain knows it well. 
That make the sale,
So comfortable for every traveller. 

Every tide is singing 
precious songs to the shore. 
Never ending confrontation with unceasing love. 
Every mother is a replica of this abundant love. 

Ten ears to listen 
every child's cry and 
Ten hands to complete 
every task. 
My childhood will remain 
till my mother exists. 

Yes,  she is an ocean of 
abundant love, 
Never-ending stream of love. 
Like mother earth 
never-ending resource for all. 
An inspiration to generations.
