The Woman As A Good Mother Is Simply Great Poem by Dr John Celes

All the flowers I may give,
Can’t make up for your love you gave,
When I was just a new-born child,
Dependent, defenseless in this world!

All the kisses I may plant
Can’t make up for those you gave me,
In times of joy and in distress,
And when I felt lonely a kid!

All the embracing I make
Cannot annul your caresses,
Encouraging, appreciating,
For the little things I did!

All the prayers I offer
Is dwarfed by your life-time effort,
In times of strife, while I was ill,
And hymns to God as thanksgiving!

All the love I may repay
Is naught, compared to what you gave,
While in your womb and afterwards –
My precious mum, you are so great!

Dedicated to all good mothers on Mother’s Day
