You Are a Marvelous Mother

Your womb fills the world with warmth and wealth,
From your milky hills flow happiness and health.
Your beauty, brain and brawn electrify the earth…
You are a marvelous mother.

You are a rose, a rainbow and a refreshing river;
Nature has nurtured you to be a great giver…
Your humble heart makes you a fair forgiver. 
You are a marvelous mother.

Fears and tears are rolled away in your arms;
Champions are cheered by your great charm…
Your home is void of hatred and all harms.
You are a marvelous mother.

Priceless, you can never be bought or sold;
You sparkle brighter than galaxies of gold…
A lady and a lioness, ever brilliant and bold;
You are a marvelous mother.

You are a song, a story, a lifter and lover…
You are a cure, a cook and a great cover…
Around your heart hope and help hover.
You are a marvelous mother.
