A Mother's Love

By Michael O. Adesanya

There are times only when a Mother’s love

Can understand our tears,

Can soothe our disappointments

And calm all our fears. There are times when only a Mother’s Love

Can share the joy we feel

When something we’ve dreamed about

Quite suddenly is real. There are times when only a Mother’s faith

Can help on life’s way

And inspire in us the confidence

We need from day to day.

For a Mother’s heart and a Mother’s faith

And a Mother’s steadfast love

Were fashioned by the Angels

And sent from God above…
