A Mothers Love

From the very first time, you hold your child Their first gift is your heart forever, The love you give and they return Is the bond that will hold you together Throughout their life, your love will be A light that guides their way The beacon aglow in the darkness Should they ever go astray, Your love will give them courage When the way ahead is unclear And will give them strength, when needed To help overcome their fear, Your love will accept them for who they are Whatever they say or do Your love will forgive unreservedly Because they are a part of you, It’s a love that will know no barriers Have no bounds, no expectations Your love will be unconditional, Pure, with no complications A love that remains as constant As the stars in the heaven above A gift no money on earth can buy, The gift of a mother’s love.
