Mustapha Mohammed Poet Rhyme

A Prayer For Mother

I know I could never repay her for what she's given me. For she's given me a treasure worth more than gold.  I will die a thousand times if something tragic were to happen to her. A Prayer For Mother, Always And Forever.


Protect her day by day
When enemies do surround
In fervent prayer to God I pray
To keep her safe and sound.

For she's given me a perfect gift
A gift of love and life complete
Her sunken spirit may you lift
To thrones above where seraphs meet.

As once I weaned upon her breast
Fearless, safe and warm I lay
So Lord I plead, not more not less
Chase far her troubles away.

But if by time my soul expire
That my life had met its doom
Lord in your arms I do aspire
To love her beyond the tomb!
