This poem is dedicated to all my fellow women, mothers, wives, girlfriends, sisters, aunts and daughters that bring light and strength to our families, our communities, to the world.
Mother Goddess
by: Puja Shah
strong woman
inner divine
true feminine…
search your brown hued eyes in the mirror
as reflections reveal
shakti.
your heart and hands are the pillars
of a family you spend countless
seconds minutes days years
putting first.
in turns of spoons in pots
strokes of palm on foreheads
brushed lips of love on falling tears…
you are the essence
of their forward
and they
breathe it in
your sweet glances
strong words
silent heart
Devi of all
mother goddess.
