Ndaba Sibanda Poet Free verse

Special Love

They are special 
With a love essential
They and only they are endowed 
With the amazing biology of giving birth 
And the natural ability to breast-feed to satisfaction 

They are special
With a love essential
They and only they are the world`s 
Mothers and grandmothers and sisters 
Who can care and love better than a mother?

They are special
With a love essential
They and only they have love that knows
No time, hardship, distance, disability or old age
Because a mother`s love is the epitome of perseverance

Andrea Dietrich November 21, 2013 at 5:26 PM I just read what Mike said to you. He is right in that archaic English is not something publishers want to see. but of course we can understand what you were saying. Ndaba Sibanda November 21, 2013 at 5:34 PM Andrea, thank you for the piece of advice. Now l see what he was referring to. Stone Age terminology wont endear me to publishers, you are right. Point taken. This is honest critiquing l expect. THANKS!
