Love of Mother
Mother’s love … beauty of great excellence
Virtuous midst legacy’s prevalence
The best of human’s care-superlative
Expressing sublime kind heart’s directive.
Mom’s warm, sweet caress --- graciously tender
Soothes child, whether victim or offender…
Her embrace, ensuring hugs’ approval
Turns failures into triumph-upheaval.
Mama’s voice, gentle with truth’s assertion
Calls for guilt-admission and confession
Smile from her lips showcases bliss-delight
Glowing along blessed serenity’s light.
Mother’s love: wondrous treasure to cherish
God's good gift*...as shared... does greatly flourish.
*James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
