Mary Chakunny Puthur


An aunt who is a globe trotter
and an inspiration to my gen
She is also a time traveller
with stories of now and then

She has frozen time on paper,
old coins and collected stones
She understand humans
How they feel in their bones

She has done a lot of good
Being there for everyone
praying for their health
Unlike any under the sun

In height she may be short
But she does pack a punch
She can work more than anyone
she is superhuman is my hunch

Even though she is single
She is like a mother to us
Unconditional love
No tantrums, no fuss

Being their at time of birth
praying at times of illness
Consoling when a soul departs
a nurse at time of sickness

An ideal daughter!
Who got Scotch for her dad
Helped mom in the kitchen
And all the siblings she had

She walks with Jesus
And is on a spiritual quest
Hear her words of wisdom
on life, on solitude, on zest

Never complaining, always smiling
that is her signature style
She is a model Christian
Who always goes the extra mile
