A Mother's Love by Stalin Usher gathered from LABEN newsletter dtd 5/98
Bringing a child to birth is not a matte guided by wealth
One makes extra efforts at the preservation of good health
Assuring yourself his life has the most loving start
You hold him close - to feel the pumping of his little heart
Mothers tend to be the greatest of the Creator's finest creations
With futures guaranteed as consistent preservers of nations
Carrying this burden for a lifetime may be quite unimaginable
But the philosophy of total genocide is most intolerable
Mothers for the most part have great unrecognized capabilities
But are usually contented to be overshadowed by another's abilities
Regarding offspring a mother's love is hard to share
Nonetheless well adjusted children are the result of a mother's care
Mother's sleepless nights filled with hours of pounding aches
Because learned children are making silly mistakes
Amazing though a mother sees her child do no wrong
Even though their separation has been most difficult and long
The most remarkable known emotion is a mother's love
An emotion any receiving child will be proudest of
A mother's love is not measured as a gallon or a quart.
Only the giver knows it comes from a sweet, pure heart.
