A Mother's Love

There’s been a constant presence in my life Who heard me greet the world in hearty voice, Then cradled me within her loving arms As feelings rose which caused her to rejoice. Three daughters were surrounded by her love And looking back on happy childhood days I see the true extent of all her care Expressed to us in very many ways. And as the years advanced I too would know The joy of having children of my own, And once again deep gratitude abounds For all the love which she to them has shown. So Mum, these words come from a grateful heart which understands how very much you cared. I thank God for your countless acts of love And all the happy memories we've shared. 11/11/18 A Mother's Love, Tributes Of Love For Mother's Day Poetry Contest Sponsored by: BJ Legros Kelley A poem to my Mother to be included in my Christmas poetry album Mother poetry contest Sponsor : Constance la France entered 29.03.21
