To Forgive - Is Mother

she knew he was wrong, very wrong, yet she loved her son dear,
mother’s love is divine strong, from darkness would steer him clear!

Congratulations, Krish, for earning a spot in the top ten of fifty entries in my couplets contest. The title was compelling, of course, and I loved "mother's love is divine strong," such a marvelous definitive phrase.
