Mummy's Lullaby Poem by Okoronkwo Jonathan Jackson

You are a treasure whose value cannot be measured.
Your being, unique and incomparable.
Like you, is no other;
Oh mother.

Howbeit the warmness of your embrass,
That from your bossom comes solace-
When in affliction I seem lost,
Oh Mother.

Your cuddle like showers of rain,
Your tenderness ever blossoming like the lily-
Protecting the young like the mother hen,
Oh Mother.

Wisdom to the child,
Courage to the man,
The joy of having you around:
Oh Mother.

In sorrow you bring joy.
Thy consoling brave heart conquers the weary mourning heart.
And thy passionate smile eludes all weeping-
Oh Mother.

In you I see the joy of womanhood;
Not minding the mysteries of your suffering, yet:
With open heart you took the fate-
Oh Mother.

Forever I'll cherish you.
My love for you will never die, for,
You are truly a treasure more costly than any other treasure in the Treasure Island-
Oh Mother
