A Mother's Heart

A mother's heart begins to speak,
As into this world her child she sees,
And from that moment this beating heart,
Gives out its love and so much more.

A mother's hart has the courage to fight,
And confronts those who do us harm,
A heart which protects us at all costs,
And puts our happiness ahead of its own.

A mother's heart is made out of love,
Constant and eternal,
Present and fair,
From the very beginning we feel it there.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
