Original Poetry by Residents
A Mother’s heart is poised with love
As greatest gift from our Father above
Full of kindness, forgiving again and again
She carries all sorrows, hiding all strain
Great wisdom shines from her ageless eyes
Beaming strength beating trouble whenever inside
While for our early childhood’s small pain
Mommy’s soft touch gave us sunshine again
Past parks, toys and funfilled great game
Mother will now be her rightful blessed name
Loving small rascals with equal skilled art
Like young women and men, capturing their heart
Through years of schoolpals and friends alike
Mothers still lead with their guiding light
Protectful with prayers all through our life
Till children seal to husband and wife
Calloused worn hands still send prayers above
Seeking health and good fortune blessing us
We thank you today for all your love
Of a great mother’s lead to our Father above.
