ode to mom

My relationship with my mom is a magical one. From the time she delivered me, her journey began alone because my dad was not well. So, it hadn’t been easy on her from the start. And me being an only child, was another challenge altogether. But she persisted and I resisted. Then she relented with conditions, and I gave in - in my own way because…because… I only have one mom! Not sure about you, but I believe I’m her child for a reason. And so this was written for her. It is just a glimpse. There’s so much to write about her and that could be another book!!!
