Breastfeeding a Snake

Adam and Eve, God created Things and animals, He made Good are some, bad are others Like parents, children hardly behave Costly is making a child grow But strongly, mothers hope The child will grow certainly To become responsible To feed children, mothers sacrifice For true love they have for humanity But when they grow mature, Abel and Cain, they change into Dangerous children’s prongs become For breast and courage offered to Cain Energy and time vanished ungratefully But the motherly heart rests unbothered Poem by Mugisho N Theophile
