Mother's Day

*HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY* To that blessed woman whose belly we were formed To that beautiful soul whose blood and water we first fed on That woman who condoned òur excesses even before our birth To you mother, whose milk first gave us strength To her whose bosom we first laid Whose look and smile transmitted love and passion To you whose prayers cleared the way for us Whose care and guidance made a path through the jungle for us To you our mother, whose hand has forged heroes and conquerors Dear mother whose shoulder we found peace, solace, love and courage. To you mom who has birthed beautiful generations Generations to keep the world alive and full The one who fulfils the commandment of God You've made the earth multiply its inhabitants Thanks for the beauties and cutes you gave us Thanks for the queens from where I made my choice Thanks for the love you've spread with your deeds Blessed you are in the day through to the nights You are honoured from the peak of the plateaus to its valleys Bountiful are you in yields and values Your worth remains immeasurable and incomparable We celebrate you from the rise of the sun to its set in the far west To you ma, a precious mother, supporter and builder... Happy mother's day to you ma. Oloye Olufemi
