For Mothers
A dusty old magnolia tree
sleepy, quiet as can be
sometimes I forget to see it's there
yesterday that evergreen
blossomed like I've never seen
a gift from heaven like an answered prayer
flowers pink with just a trace
of God's perfume, a fragrant grace
even winter can't displace it's hue
magnolias are another way
of God reminding me to say
don't forget on mothers' day that you
mother, sacrificed
and gave the earth another life
like the Son, you reflects God's way
a mother's traits like a mothers love
all are strengths of God above
mom, I love you, happy mothers' day
