“Look mom! Here’s my call letter!”
The young uniformed lad….
Handed over the leaflet with pride
To be positioned at a high altitude, a place quiet….
She adjusted her glasses lightly
While reading the lines carefully
Keeping the smile intact
She couldn’t afford to show her tears…..
Her ‘poor’ conflicting mind….
For no reason it’s always under stress!
Are all ‘Moms’ same???
Her only child, following his father’s footsteps
Just for nation’s sake
He was all ready to move afar….all set!
But there she was…..
An Army wife!
Confident and courageous…..
Ever since she was knitted into this world of braves
She knew her decisions were right
Whenever the moments were rigid and tight!
She glanced with shiny eyes
Embracing her boy close to her heart……
They stood still……
Only the pulsating beats audible
Her ‘courage’ overcame the ‘conflict’ obstacle!!!
