Blessed Mothers

Throughout the ages of time, Mothers have sacrificed all,
Giving of one’s selfless time as they heed the Mother’s call.
No greater burden humans bear than giving a life to another,
The sweetest words spoken from tiny lips is the word “Mother”.

No greater love can be shown by one who seeks not her own,
But yields her body to pain as the babies to adults have grown.
Her suffering never ceases as she watches choices they bear,
Most often not yielding to God’s love, but giving in to worldly care.

The Love of Mother is tender and deep, it fills the entire heart,
Her mercy, her love and her gentle way guide each failing part.
She lifts us up each time we fall, encourages us to do our best,
Then gently she takes us in her arms and helps us find his rest.

The love of a Mother cannot be bound only in heaven’s embrace,
Her guidance, love and giving soul will touch all the human race.
Peace will abound as long as righteous Mothers can be found,
Who endear the phrase “I love you Mother” the sweetest sound.
