A man went to the king of gods and said:
I want someone soft yet tough,
I want someone who has fathomless love,
I want someone with tremendous patience,
I want someone with tons of endurance!
God waited, the man continued:
I want someone to cook me tasty food,
And to wash my clothes,
And also to help me with my chores!
God smiled, and asked then?
I want someone to wipe my tears away,
I want someone to cheer my blues away,
I want someone to correct my wrongs,
I want someone to help me grow strong!
God cleared his throat and raised his brows:
I want someone to talk, yet listen,
I want someone to give me freedom, yet rein me in,
I want someone to heal my wounds,
And I want someone to be always there for me!
God smiled and replied:
It’s a tall order indeed.
But, you do have your MOTHER.

Very sweet 😍
Oh my, my! What an inspiring poem indeed. God could not be everywhere, that is why he created mothers. You have paid rich tributes to your mother. I am sure she must be smiling from heaven with her heart filled with a sense of pride at how much her tiny bride who cried on her departure , is today able to take things in her stride.
