Poetry: Being a mother

by Moeze Lalji

Created on: May 04, 2009   Last Updated: July 19, 2011

Being a mother
Calls for the
Multitask of
Heavens

Like an octopus

One hand for the kids
One hand for the father
One hand for the cooking
One hand for the budget
One hand for the driving
One hand for the telephone
One hand for the families
One hand for the shopping
One head for the blow up and loving

And how can
An ocean have
No waves

Coming up
To the surface

Just to show
What is going on
Down at the bottom
Of 
Being a mother sea

With all the
Global fish
Passing by
