There is no way to measure a mother’s worth <br />The depths of her love and her gentle care <br />The bond she has with her children from birth <br />No gift or treasure can ever compare <br />Her words that become engraved in her children’s mind <br />Start as only seeds planted in the fertile soil <br />But they take root so the right path they may find <br />As these trees mature and face both joy and turmoil <br />There is no way to measure a mother’s worth <br />No scale or ruler or number can calculate <br />There is no equal of her love here on earth <br />No riches or value can be given to compensate <br />Her touches that heal the wounds on the knee or elbow <br />Can also comfort the wounds on the spirit or the heart <br />They inspire and lift up those that are low <br />And encourage her children from the very start <br />There is no way to measure a mother’s worth <br />The attention that she shows the ones she raises <br />The abundant supply of affection and mirth <br />Is worthy of infinite gratitude and praises <br />Her wisdom is beyond what words can say <br />The limitless strength that she uses to protect <br />The love that she shares from day to day <br />Deserves much honor and respect <br />There is no way to measure a mother’s worth <br />The intensity of her love is both precious and rare <br />The bond she has with her children from birth <br />There is no equal of her indefinite worth anywhere<br /><br />Arthor Journer<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-measure-of-a-mother-s-worth/
