Mother Poem by Karima Dalhatu Shehu

Written: 24th/06/2022


A delicate being with pure heart,
as broad as paddies -
but not like a mate,
A pillow of man and children,
Almighty's gift like morning rain,
Secured with greater sanity,
not perfect but pure soul,
An ocean herself,
blessed like an ocean-bed,
An up spring guard,
as an ocean cave,
She's emotional like moisture,
Open like stream's posture,
World's warmer with supreme texture.


A foundation of happy family,
Life's destruction when cut with a knife,
A desert herbalist,
A highly skilled therapist,
A nurse without a school,
Energetic as geothermal,
Renown architect at home,
She sacrificed for us to bloom,
She cries as she feels our pain,
and endure for us with her patience,
She deserves to be cherished and loved,
.................................
....................................
So, here we salute her and all applaud.👏👏👏
