You Gently Rocked the Cradle…

In the cradle of love
You held us with care
With gentle rocking
Calmed us with prayer...
The countless learnings
Learned the hard way,
Setbacks trammeled the chosen pathway
Yet like a savior!
Thou arrived on every hard day...
Being unmindful
We sailed towards the land of make-believe
A delusional world ,
Where agony waited in disguise to receive...
Pomp & unrefined happiness
Snatched the purity within;
Left us alone 
On a crossroad
We have never been...
Found you again
Resting on the ground
When gently you waved,
Told us to be brave
And embrace 
The new cradle named grave...
