SHE..!!!

Her little ears longed to hear her mother’s voice. She counted on her heartbeat to hear those three words from her mom “I love you”. Every sound awakened her and she eagerly waited to see light. She wanted to see that special woman who is bearing her for months now.

Her tiny eyes closed, she dreamt every second about the happy family that shall be hers from the second she is born. She grew at a natural pace while the water around cuddling her gently. She never knew what hunger was as the soft womb had it all ready for her. She was tenderly molded and was beautifully modeled. She was beautiful as the pearl and radiant as the diamond. She was a magic created in dark but shall show light to the world. She was happy while the day to see her mother was nearing. She kicked her mom when she wanted to feel her more and then have a silent smile with the warmth of her mom.

But everything changed the day she was born. She expected her mother to be happy and have the tears of happiness at her first sight. She did find tears but there wasn’t any happiness in them. She still waited for her dad’s first kiss which she thought will get as soon as she saw him. She looked around for her happy family but found none. As she waited, it was time for her to sleep as she was tired seeing the colors of the world for the first time.

Her tiny eyelids opened again to find the world completely changed. She no longer felt her mother’s warmth or her dad’s presence. Not only this she also felt hungry. All the magic suddenly disappeared while she found herself in a dump of garbage when she suddenly realized that she was abandoned by her mother.

She closed her eyes not to see light again and closed her ears not to hear any heart beat again. She never wanted to see this world again not because this was cruel as it left her to the earth and winds but she was hurt to see the woman who bore for many months left her in a day.

Ms. Meduri.. I am speechless.. have read numerous such poignant tales.. but never in such a magical heart rending narration. wow! My eyes moistened.. sometimes the storongest creatures on the Earth.. Mothers become helpless for they don't even knwo what happens with them in such situations.. Let us pray for the grief of such mothers.. and there are many.. and shall continue to be.. for the world and its worldly ways.. You are a blessed soul..YES!

this is poignant, beyond sad, that this sort of thing happens - it seems to me the child would be forever affected by such abandonment
