English Poetry
A WOMAN I KNOW
__________________
A woman I know
Who was always kind and sweet,
No anger neither beat,
I know her for years,
Though I didn't see her tears.
A woman I know
Who wouldn't let anyone to do her work,
A woman I know
Who loved me and did everything for me
Neither mom nor sister.
A woman I know
With whom I used to walk,
A woman I know
With whom I spent my past.
A woman I know
Who taught me the things that she had learnt,
A woman I know
Who has done many more things which I can't compensate.
There might be a huge age difference,
That doesn't matter when it comes to friends,
I used to kiss her wrinkled cheek,
Every night before I go to sleep.
Years passed and I'm here,
With her beautiful memories
And with my tears.
A woman I know
Who was a super lady,
A woman I know
Who's the mother of my daddy.
