The true example and creation of LOVE
They care&open their arms like the wings of a DOVE
They prepare you for the world to fit like a GLOVE
A mother can handle it ALL, even a midnight CALL
It starts with patience to teach you how to catch a BALL
until you grow old & TALL
she is chosen & trusted by God to nurture care feed & love YOU
even to wee & use the LOO
The super glue which keeps the family TOGETHER
and as gentle & soft like a FEATHER
she will provide you with a rain coat in rainy WEATHER
and dress you for a party in LEATHER
always a friendly statement and a smile on her FACE
Even If she feels like the holes in LACE
or a defendant in a court CASE
she will teach you of first BASE
and run next to you in your first RACE
Provide you with the last piece of CAKE
which she was tempted to MAKE
The unconditional love which comes with many DISSAPOINTMENTS
she will forgive and rub a new OINTMENT
the blessed 24/7 mothers who are TIRED
YOu are loved and ADMIRED
Mothers
