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.

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.
