Ifeanyi Obinefo Poet ABC

Sweet Mother

A lot of mothers clothe their children with silver and gold,
So that the shine like the orange sun rays,
And glow like the silver of the full moon,
Their own way of caring for a child.
     SWEET MOTHER

BUT YOU ARE SPECIAL!!!!

Like a candle in the dark,
You brought me out of the night that covered me,
Feeding me with truth and righteousness,
Protecting me from the wrath of ignorance.
      SWEET MOTHER

Soft words are your currency of conversation.
With the wisdom in your voice,
Sadness gave way to happiness,love and light,
Taking away the feelings of grief and envy,
That poisoned my soul for many years.
     SWEET MOTHER

You are the beauty behind my scars,
You are my bright light in an ocean of darkness,
You are and forever will be my "SWEET MOTHER"

I LOVE YOU
