Waunita Flint's sister in law loves to write poetry. Here is her latest written in honor of Mother's Day.
A Mother Is..... A mother is..... Someone who gave you, along with God, The life you have today; The one who gave you tender care When as a babe you lay. A mother is..... The one who loves and prays for you Each day that you may live; The one who gives you of herself... The best that she can give! A mother is..... Someone we take for granted Until this day appears; Please know the wishes do extend Each day throughout the year! For the mothers who are no longer with us..... A song of remembrance for those in the past, Whose faces are fading from mem'ry at last. Their presence grows dim, it's hard to recall The time they were here, this side of the pall. Tis God's plan of mercy, to lighten the pain; We're left with the love til we meet again! Thank you, God for our mothers. Thank you for the fat ones...they have such comforting laps! Thank you for the skinny ones...they have hearts as big as all outdoors! Thank you for the short ones...their shoulders are wide enough to carry all our troubles! Thank you for the tall ones...we have someone to look up to! Whatever their size, help us, God, to remember only their special mothering traits, and forgetting all else, thank you for them! Amen Jean Flint 2012 |
