My Mother - haiku

TEN HAIKU'S ON A ROW FOR MY MOTHER

Not yet I can write
A poem for my mother
Words flow like the rain

Gave birth to a child
I found my Mother to nurse
My wound and my child

My mind still searches 
the right word to describe her
words not sufficient

Candle is her life
She sacrifice her whole self
To brings light in ours

When I cry in pain
The tears gather in her eye
Unconditional Love

Protects me all day
Angel disguised as mother
A treasured secret

Grown up like a tree
I still search for her lap
To sleep in safety

Share all your secrets
Mothers are more than we think
True Confident

No diamonds or gold
Match my mother's precious love
Still ornaments me

    too beautiful uma. people say that you come to know the "love" of your parents after you have your own kids- your poem says it.
