Mothers are angels. From the day we are born until the day one of us passes away, mother is the one we can turn to, to ease hurt, love us, tell us everything will be ok. My mother passed away 11 years ago and I still miss her, still catch myself wanting to tell her some thing I heard, etc., Your poem is appropriate for today, March 8, Women's Day.

This is a lovely write, and a great title fitting to a mom. Mom's are indeed angels.

I do have a small critique though and I think this piece would benefit more with some more punctuation. I noticed some rhymes for instance this line:

patiently she listens food she feeds,

^ i think I am not the best in grammar but I think there should be a comma in between listens and food. The feeds was used so it could rhyme with needs but it fits.

I just noticed a few things like that other than that, I love this piece for the content as well as for the tender tone and the way this poem was approached.

Sorry double post.

Very discriptive. Images can be see in some occassions, and I really enjoyed the read.

Love the title, it truly fits the description of a mom. As children I don't think we really see what mom's do for us until we grow older, especially when we have children of our own. This write speaks volumes of how a mom loves from the day we are born until the day we pass... very powerful and well written. (7)

Excellent Write Meena!!!

I loved the title the most, so enticing! The nurse stays awake with open eyes, watching the progress and improvement in our health, while we sleep and rest in peace, not caring of her huge efforts. Nurses are the messages of mercy that God sent to us. We never feel this grace untill our health is exposed to danger. Meena, I loved the true message you delivered through the lines...it's....so deep....just beautiful. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Thanks for the info mr.khalid... =)
