A Mother's Treasures

A solitary piece the diamond precious rare gem most treasured by those lucky enough to hold Once in possession, it is rarely out of grasp Like the gemstone, the mother requires exacting conditions to maintain her (family/) children’s love Treasured forever in her heart she will go out of her way to preen and protect them holding them dear to her deep within her maternal safe – the heart closely guarded by the mind Her infatuation of all treasures to her understandable especially when you think about the complexity of structure and process took in the creation Just as from the ‘unbreakable’ in ancient Greek this allotrope of carbon with the strength of bonding between atoms is representative of a love so strong between mum and child The Maternal being - could be compared to the supreme physical qualities of the stone Even the characteristic lustre of this gem so prevalent from its ability to disperse light and colour compared to the many strengths roles and qualities of the mother seen by the many she deals with daily A most high-pressured job versus the high-pressured temperature within the Earth’s mantle that forms the delightful rock it gives birth to Infants delight and ignite the forbearer just as the jewel would dazzle the room a mother’s love captures the magical lustre of those born, and nothing stands in between this richest of cargo’s

† Except 'God The Father & Creator Of All!' Lest We Forget And Then Must Face The Eternal King ? HE, Whom Opens As Closes A Mother's Womb. Brings Forth Kings Queens And Kingdoms, For HIS Purpose ? As Also Lowers They Unto The Dust From Whence They Rose. Where Shall Glory Be, Without HIS Blessing ? Yet, Who Can Resist HIS Will ? Ahhh, Let Us Nay Forget, Our Very Reason. For There Are No 'Treasures,' Lest They Fall From HIS Hands * I Believe Precious Priceless Beautiful Loving Mother Would Agree..
