Wingless Angel

Dedicated to all the single moms out there! 

 

Every day, I see an angel 

An angel with no shiny wings on her back 

An angel with no halo ring on her head 

But she has this incredible aura within her 

Radiating love wherever she goes  

In this belligerent society  

Battling solely for her beloved ones 

Listening to all complaints, but never complains 

She returns home, she loves, she caresses   

But again, never complains 

That's who she is, an angel, 

With no shiny wings and no halo ring.

Aditya this is a glowing tribute to countless women who rise above lifes trial and tribulations and overcome hurdles to unselfishly seek to better the lifes of their offsprings.

The accolade of angels is an appropriate one for this army of uncomplaining single mothers.

A wonderful poem.
