Mother

You started out as a child
Your heart running free, your mind running wild
No worries in the world, just a little free spirited girl

As time went on, you became more aware
Knowing so much, so quickly gave your maturing
heart a bit of a scare

You survived through it all, one time you stand
one time you fall

Now you have little spirits running through the
world, eyes full of glow
Over protective Mother, safing your child from
the life that you already know

Through your guidance they will stand tall
Through your guidance there will be a cushion
for their fall

The world has been blessed with the soft
Mother’s caress

Of all the blessings that a child could own, after
you there is no other

Stand tall and proud, for you are the earth,
you are the “Mother”
