GOODBYE MOTHER

Conscience, courage and change.

Read the complete poem
I can never explain, The pain that entangled me, As I said Goodbye-- To my dear motherland. Never knew when I'll return, I was leaving her alone, Between friends and foe-- I don't know. Clouds covered the sky, She was crying as she wished goodbye. I was heading for open sea, With only the sky above me, Though I didn't know my destiny. I may never come back, But my love will never fade, She made me to stand, She taught me to live, Through her I understood-- What is the world. My standing is-- Her blessings. Mother I'll come back, Return to your lap, To put in your feet, All that I earn, And help my brothers, To learn-- The values of life. Bless me mother, That in all my births, I be your part.
