My Sunshine

She cried, her body writhed in pain,
Her screams, dulled by the rain…
She prayed, tears welled up in those lovely eyes...
Tears of love, tears of sacrifice…
And then she was born,
Tiny, delicate like the dew of early morn…
She was the joy of the mother’s life…
She was the force, which kept the mother alive…
The lovely eyes filled with care,
The trembling lips touched the tiny forehead…
“O dear, my little princess”, said she
“No force shall separate us, my beauty.
“I promise to protect you, from the storm,
And keep you, safe and warm…
Never fear, my dear, for mother’s here
And everything’s gonna be right, my sunshine…
