The First Wonder of the Universe

Marvelous creation of God All Mighty, He has made you so soft and hardy, Has given the songs to your heart While in pain you know how to sooth me fast The divine breasts are always filled To feed not one but all links equally. Most of all; He has given you mighty wings To fly miles miles around Even through the stormy winds If knew I am sad and down I will feel your warmth known When you're in heaven to hold your throne My Mom You are the first wonder of the whole Universe.

Yes, my dear, it the first wonder and remains for ever a wonder no matter how old we get. Once, I asked a lady of one hundred-year-old, whom would she like to meet first on the other side, she replied: My mother! Then she burst out to tears! Beautiful writing! Thank you!

Thank you Demetrios my friend.You are correct. If there is a way we can bring our mothers back from the heaven,( All the mother sure to be in heaven for the love she had shown to all her children) This world will be shining with unconditional love. Manel
