This is a poem I wrote along with my listeners on a live podcast. Each verse has been written by a different person and have been arranged in the order they were sent to me.
I remember the time
Many years ago,
When I would hold your hand with mine,
As I tried to walk beside you,
But my small steps would eventually
Leave me a little behind,
You would stop and give me a smile,
Crouching down to my height,
Telling me that everything was fine.
-Moyeen
I remember how you helped me ride my tricycle,
I remember you helping me spell words,
I remember you being with me,
I still remember not being able to express any of that to you till date! - Major
You are my best friend,
You are my partner in crime,
You are my wellwisher,
You are my protector,
And you are my life.
You are my hope,
So many roles,
Yet;
My only constant.
My Amma.
The only star in my universe♥️ -Eswari
You forget so my things
But
You never forget to say
'' If you are happy
I am happy''. -Eswari
Once upon a memory,
Someone wiped away a tear,
Woke me up and walked me outdoors,
Then I saw it l, she stood so near,
The most beautiful creation to have ever existed! -Ruthvik
My first best friend,
You've taught me the difference between good and bad, sometimes with a tap on head sometimes with the solace in your lap.
- Rakesh
The more I look at you, the more I explore the universe.
The world for me, exist because of you.
-Sagar
You are an angel of who stands beside me and fulfills all the wishes of mine. - Jazz
Your hugs as i slept made the monsters in my dreams vanish in no time. - Jazz
Your arms are like the soft escape
I'll cling onto you through every thick and thin, for I know, you'll always know my need.
-Ananya
It's a golden memory, can't see your face now, you are not with me although your steps are guiding me to the right path for the journey of my whole life. - Ameet
Your hands soft and delicate,
Coarsened and stiffened through time,
As you molded me from just clay,
To the perfect being of today. -Chiranjeet
This was written live during the podcast on the occasion of mother's day by my awesome listeners!
I cannot express to the gratitude I feel after witnessing so many people coming together to write this. It is overwhelming and amazing at the same time.
I'm my heart, I hope be able to host many such events that bring people together in such a creative way!
Thanks guys!
