Sentinel of Strength

Nourishment- encouragement. Minister of all heart's treasure Donor of the kindest pleasure Infinite love, no measure Powerful embraces, your leisure. Sublime being, forever proud Never shallow, nor a shroud Instructing all, love you vowed Quiet sentinel, strength so loud. Upon weary days, you'd not smother Heart enriching, me 'n' my brother To adore you, there in no other Divulging to all, the perfect Mother.
