How could i miss you

How could I miss you

A star shining so bright, just within my reach…..
Throwing light on my every deed, good, bad or ugly
Laughing, crying, sharing my pain
Always crouching on the ground to break my every fall
I really wonder how I could miss you at all

Right by my side for every difficult move
Learning with me helping me grow
Taking my chiding in your stride
All my steps add to your pride
No matter what I do no matter my age
Your love for me never fades
Really touching were all your moves
In spite of me never stepping in your shoes

All my tantrums and whims and fancies
Some were fulfilled some brushed aside gently
Somehow it never occurred to me
How close to God I could ever be

Its true when they say God cant be everywhere
For each child of his he has given a Mother to care
I had mine at every step of life
But its now that I realize that you shine so bright
To thank you enough words fail me today
You keep shining for me throughout the day
Day in and Day out you guide me through
I love you Aai (Mother) for all that you gave me
For the inspiration, the support and the life
Never will I miss your radiant light again
