the north star

the little angel came into our lives,

like a blessing from the stars..

he brought with him joy and love

so pure and divine.

 

even inside the womb,

he understood

his mother's need,

to be with all her loved ones;

so he used his magnetism

to pull our family together

and wove us into a beautiful fabric

with the magic of love...

 

the little angel came to us

and made us realise,

that we had taken for granted

all these years,

the purity of love and family

in one blessed second...

 

the miniute i held him in my arms

the whole world ceased to exist;

and my life took a turn towards

the right direction...

to feel his tiny heart beating,

and to feel his life's breath

warm on my face,

cleaned my soul and my spirit

and gave me

a second chance at life...

 

his tiny fingers reached for my thumb

held on to it and never let go...

with that gesture he made me a promise,

that he would guide me

like the north star

in the darkest times of my life

and show me the path to life..

the path to love...

 

those tiny fingers did release my thumb

after that...

but its firm clasp on to my heart

and my soul

becomes tighter each passing day...
