In a Mother's Hand

In a Mother’s hand You will find patience Perseverance and dedication The ability to look past imperfection In a Mother’s hand You will find courage Strength and understanding An acceptance of responsibility In a Mother’s hand You will find discipline Advice and encouragement A need to provide guidance In a Mother’s hand You will find love Compassion and generosity A place of protection In a Mother’s hand You will find pride Honor and integrity A governess of principles In a Mother’s hand You will find a reflection Of all her hopes and dreams And the sacrifices she made In a Mother’s hand You will find the hand of a child Naive to the worth of A Mother’s hand Until A child’s hand is within their own
