Mothers

The rib of Adam,yet there wouldn't be you or I, without Eve,
Mothers, the fertilizer of the Earth,
The carrier of the torch of life,
The gate way to the next generation,
The real strength behind mankind,
Like the statue of Liberty,you look over your off springs,
Never resting, always caring,for you I say this prayer...

Almighty,give our mothers the strength to endure,
Give them vision, to teach the next generation to believe in themselves,
So they will grow with the intention of making the world,
a better place, for themselves and their off springs,
Touch the womb of those in pregnancy,
And let the next generation be kids ,
That will make their mothers proud.....Amen..

Hey Bo, as far poetry and emotions go, this is an excellent write; Unfortunantly I dont know where I stand on religous epitat and have horrible mommy issues.. I wrote a piece years ago, very simple and yet full of WHY?? I rarely post writes like this one but.. You seem to have a positive outlook, which I think is great and kinda envy... Pen on!! TC
