We Boast of Her
She has a mama’s lap and a mama’s smile.
There is a gentleness that reassures children.
They climb up, knowing her hugs will be perfect
She is a woman who understands people
She speaks the language of children
There is a loving awareness that precedes her
She is content in her life’s work
Grateful she was born a woman,
Doing angel’s work, loving humanity
She is not boastful, so we boast of her
We are glad she is our mama
We are thrilled
