The light pink cosmos sway
In the nonchalant sunshine of this autumn day
Presently, Mother, fragile with tears
Gives a single cough in the garden
Opening a photo album on the veranda
Of my childhood memories
She repeats the same stories many times
Speaking to herself in a tiny voice
On this quiet Indian summer’s day
Her kindness comes in a flood
She has worked hard for my wedding tomorrow
And changed each moment with funny stories
As she laughed and told me not to worry
Thinking back through all my memories
She has never left me all alone
At this late hour, I bite my lip
Knowing my selfishness
Helping out with packing in anticipation of tomorrow
Just as she was enjoying herself
Suddenly Mother shed tears and said “Be happy”
Repeating it again and again
Reflecting on words on gratitude
I will try to live on my own
But on this quiet Indian summer’s day
Just for a while longer
Let me remain as your child
