It is the saddest thing to be without a caring mother, <br />For a love that transcends time in all things or another, <br />Caring, nourishing, patience to a lonely frightened child, <br />Setting you on an honest, correct path letting you not to be wild, <br />A mother's caress, cuddling a babe in her open arms, <br />It is one of life's blessings to be cherished by her maternal charms, <br />A mother's love is the greatest love on this eternal earth, <br />For Tis a mother who brought you into this world by birth, <br />We can ignore her, yell at her, and curse the day we were born, <br />For when she is gone we look for love and guidance so forlorn, <br />Memories so sweet and tender of her love so dear, <br />But it's gone forever, her memory for us is not very clear, <br />We grow old and frail in our life's span, <br />It is God's wish to give us a mother, for it is his plan.<br /><br />David Schwartz<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-mother-s-love-3/
