Mother’s, Fathers & God's Love Poem by Tom Zart

MOTHER’S

There’s no greater power on Earth
Than the love we get from our mothers.
They feel our fears within themselves
Far more than sisters or brothers.

As seasons pass; in time we learn
We can’t always rely on others.
No mater what our mistakes may be
We know we can run to our mothers.

Mothers have great big aprons
To hide from the world our flaws.
They kiss and scold when we do wrong
Teaching compliance of laws.

From birth to death mothers lead
Our angels of kindness from above.
They give us more than anyone else
Preaching the importance of love.

Moms are certainly God’s gift to Earth
So if you still have one, let it be known.
You can’t imagine your life without her
While the seed of your future is sown.

FATHER’S = 2013

Where would I be without you dad
My hero of night and day
I'm so glad you love my mother
And think of us when you pray

The last time we went to church
You reached for me with your hand.
I looked at you, then made a wish
That I might be just half the man.

I love my father of this Earth
And I love my father of heaven.
It's a lot for me to love, you know
For I'm only eleven.

Mom and I sure miss you
Since you left to defend our flag.
When others ask, where is your dad
I can't help but boast and brag.

It’s not a priest that gives us our freedom of religion
And it’s not a reporter that gives us our freedom of voice.
It’s not any judge, lawyer, politician, or teacher
But the blood of a soldier that has sacrificed by choice.

GOD'S LOVE

The powers of darkness still thrive today
As much as anytime in history’s past.
Babies grow up to become kind or cruel
Judged by God’s wisdom and forgiveness to the last.

The outcomes of God’s heroes of the Bible
Relate to our victories, fear, heartbreak and mistake.
Passions of joy, love, guilt, failure and evil deeds
Teach us to conform, repent, pray and relate.

God loves all from conception till death
Regardless of what we may develop to be.
All are wicked, some worse than others
By how we think, feel, believe, behave and see.
