Motherhood

Motherhood nine months of slavery Pains with origin that no man can tell Nine months of love and agony A gift we cannot sell Lo! I kicked and kicked with reckless abandon What pains could make one smile Her push brought me to this wicked kingdom Praise god! For this love is mine She made me suck what i did suck For all those care, i don’t know why Maybe am just a friend of luck What magic she did with lullaby What manner of love could be pure? So sweet, so real and so sure Unlike the dying love of a lover Than the limitless love of my mother She thought me to pray And gave me the pay She begs me to stay So i won’t go astray Nine months for my brothers Nine months for my sisters Nine months of lovely suffer God please bless my mother

This was very nice. I am an all natural kind of mom. They are all grown and almost grown now, but this is all a mother wants to hear.
