My Primary Motivator

Whenever you enter my thoughts A fire begins to burn fiercely in my heart Destroying everything in its path Except any positive thoughts And from my mind, emerges a voice Saying "You can do it And you WILL do it!" Whenever something seems amiss I think of your struggles And gradually, do I find myself more capable Of achieving every task that is set before me A Harry Houdini, you may not be However, an inspiration are you, for sure Because, so much do you care About righting all the wrongs in our society Casteism, Hindutva, Islamophobia, gender inequality Determined are you, to fight hard for social justice Even if you end up paying a huge price I consider myself an extremely lucky person To know such a lovely human being like you Who talks not through words but actions Though you are a very loving partner and mother Rarely, do you showcase your affection and care Your sheer nerve and bravery would make Godric Gryffindor proud Your patience, dedication, loyalty and sense of justice would make Helga Hufflepuff proud Your sharp wit and natural curiosity would make Rowena Ravenclaw proud And finally Your sheer ambition, determination and resourcefulness would make Salazar Slytherin proud Always, will you be my primary motivator Keep rocking, keep fighting and do take care May the Almighty bless you forever!!
