Caring Angels

Loving mothers are caring angels,
who direct us into the narrow paths of life:
to spare us much sorrow and grief, 
to motivate the growth of positive feelings;
and anytime we'll fall from grace,
they'll bring us back to God with praise!

Let those caring angels
adorn your golden dreams
with the glories you'll achieve:
like their affectionate words
that will give you worth and confidence...
when obstacles seem a hindrance!

Never resent their austerity
through reprimanding words 
or deserved punishment,
be grateful for their cleverness,
because it will keep your weakness out
and teach you those lessons of audicity!

Oh,listen and take heed;
be joyful and never  regret  your obedience
to those caring angels
who live their lives giving of themselves:
to leave their mark on all of us,
who  should disseminate their seed!
