Mother!
O’ Mother , let me offer you my garland of water petals
Which I interlace with my deepest pain
Soul flowers which blooms in May summer
Yet sympathy , I grieved , couldn't knit chain of white lilies.
Mother!
O ‘ Mother let me offer you my solemn love
Which I collected in my little palms , with my hardest spirit
White flowers which powerfully denotes your purity and sacredness
Yet today , I have no courage to grieve with such traditional flower .
Mother!
O’ Mother let me offer you bouquet of carnation, on your grave
Which I pluck with my blood and flesh to grace thy honour
Those red flowers which bloom, to calm dead soul in heaven
Yet, , today I preserve my heartache journey to reward thou glory.
Mother !
O ’Mother let me offer you chain of gladiolus
Which I weave with my love and compassion
Flower which embraces elegance and grandeur of your divine face
Let me keep your head up , with your beautiful representation
Mother!
O mother ,
Let me bestow my delicate mourning , with strength and unique character
Which I bequeath with pearls of roses , chrysanthemum and sapphire of hyacinth
Forget me not , for I tend to shy away from my sensitive emotions
Mother , O mother let me weep silently with my half heart , on your lap of grave!
Poet’s Thoughts:
The poem which is written to mourn on the death of her beloved mother. A little daughter who craves to offer handful of flowers on her mother’s grave because of traditional and customary rules . Weeping daughter tries hard to reach her mother’s soul and allowed to attend her own mother’s funeral . The poem depicts the harsh nature of society on side , on the other love of her mother after her demise and pleading Godmother let her meet with her mother’s soul at grave to offer her funeral flowers , pay her tribute and imprint an emblem of remembrance in loving memory of her mother.

This poem is heartfelt and a great example of the connection between a daughter and her mother. It uses symbolism with the indication of the flowers, reflects love, and embraces pain. The pain of losing someone as irreplaceable as a mom is a difficult reality to face. Than you so much for sharing!
