Mothers Love

Her heart cries out,
She’s always there,
Watching her children,
In total despair,
Only in child birth,
Does a mother's love know,
The pain and the suffering as they grow,
She teaches them wise,
She prays and she cries,
Her hopes and her fears,
Through all of their years,
She’s defending, she’s strong,
Guards all life long,
She gives them her best,
Not taking a rest,
Right standing and tall,
Her truth never lies,
Her spirit never dies,
Her memories linger on,
Her children grow up strong.
