Poetry: Being a mother

The Hand Of A Mother

The hand of a mother can cradle her babe,
And will care, feed and nurture him all of his days.

The hand of a mother can sooth a sore wound,
And when joined with her kiss, it will heal up soon.

The hand of a mother bakes mouth-watering treats,
And a bit of her love goes in each wonderful sweet.

The hand of a mother can wipe her babe's tears
And will continue to do so for many a year

The hand of a mother is both strong and soft,
To comfort her children when their way has been lost.

The hand of a mother can be folded in prayer,
To give thanks, to praise, or simply to share.

The hand of a mother acts with kindness and love,
Because the hand of a mother is guided by God.
