Ma.

Ma,
You have no replacement. You are still the shining star of my life.
I wish you were here with me, I wish we would have bonded the way mothers and daughters do. You have been the woman I look up to, you have been my inspiration in every way, at every step.
Now that your girl has become a woman; I wish you would have been here to see me. because your love would have softened all the blows, your presence would have comforted me when i was at my lowest, your hands would have soothed my broken heart.
I remember you Ma, your love, your care, your patience and at times your impatience.
I miss your wake up calls at 5 am. I miss how you edged me on to read. Thats your legacy to me.
I love the way you hummed some tunes, i miss the way you looked splendid in you silk saris.
I will always look up to you, you still make me proud. There is so much to say about you, and suddenly i find words are less. The beauty and grace you showed, the child-like happiness you found in everything from a flower to the cool wind, everything about you is special Ma. You still reside in my heart, your space is always there..
Your the woman i wish I would be, I wish I still had you, your presence is thoroughly missed yet even in your absence you lead me on.
And thats you Ma.
Your my idol- and hopefully you will be proud of your girl.
Hopefully I'll fulfill all the dreams you and dad have for me.
Love you Ma- Happy Mothers Day
