It was a pleasant starry summer night

He cried his way into this world

Though tired I stretched a bit to see his face

And smiled to hide my tears of joy.

Ten months of carrying and caring

Few hours of panting and paining

All seemed nothing as I felt great

Me too the mother of a small wonder

Days too short, nights so swift

But needed more time to sit and watch

The starry eyes, smile so cute and rosy cheeks

He was growing and glowing day by day

Days were restless and nights sleepless

Feel and feed him full, I was always alert

Feeling so rare, cannot feed back in words

Blissful! I say when he sucked me for life

I was speechless, when he started his speech

Senseless though, but sensuous were his words

Pants became shorts and tops tightened so quickly

Years galloped now see!! he is a young man

It was a pleasant starry summer day

I cannot wait, to hear the clock chumming twelve

I rushed to his room, and kissed him to wake

Happy birthday!! my boy, once again you made my day!!
