A Mother's Love

This was the first year I spent Mother's Day with out my Mom. Instead, I celebrated the special day with my family including my Grandmother and my Aunts who have been like my "Moms" out in California. It wasn't the same though and I wished I could have celebrated it with my Mom like the years before. I stumbled upon this beautiful Mother's Day poem and sent it to my mom via snail mail. I hope it touches your heart as it did mine.

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 fell

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
