Tribute To Mothers

Mothers, We Salute You for Your: Affirmation of God’s compassion through Your loving ways Best to bring out the beauty from us by the Lord’s grace Care with courage-cheerfulness midst crises’ rays Dedication to do your duties’ demands despite dismays… Empowerment exposed along your earnest encouragement Fortitude fueled with your faith for family-roles’ fulfillment Guidance governed by your guarding commitment Hope held upon your heavenly investment… Influential impact by your Scripture-instruction Joyful spirit for our redemption-jubilation Knowledgeable homemaking skills with kindness’ action Lawful liberality leading to life’s realization… Maneuvering motherly* means along your reliance on God’s might Nourishing nurture toward our maturity-height Overwhelming opportunities to choose what’s right Propelling purposefulness along your prayer-plight… Quietness to silence our qualms and anxiety Readiness to attend to our needs midst scarcity Steadfastness to settle our doubts with truth’s veracity Trustworthiness to guard our hearts against insecurity Uprightness to straighten our attitudes from impurity… Victorious negotiations vanquishing tantrums’ plunges Wise discipline in dealing with us for fruitful changes ‘Xcellent expertise in handling health issue dosages Yielded submission in controlling pride’s rages Zealous diligence in pursuing achievement-surges! *Proverbs 1:8 My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother. May 13, 2018 Happy Mothers’ Day to our Moms, Mamas, Nanays!

This is just lovely Beata. Not only a beautiful tribute to mothers, and women, but it reminds me of the woman found in proverbs! Love all of the alliteration and your masterful handling of Abecedarian form. Congratulations on your winning placement. Have a wonderful Mother's Day. Blessings to you.
