i found myself searching this mothers day.
of things that i wanted to say.
there was so many faces that i saw in my house of worship
that radiated such a glow.
that the thoughts in me started to flow.

what must they be thinking on this glorious day
and their children in their minds as
they started to pray.

are they praying like MOTHER MARY who s son
was put on the cross.
that their suffering will
be short, and not a complete loss.

what will my child do in this world
of trouble and turmoil?
will they play follow the leader
although he is bad!
or will they stretch out a helping hand?

will they practise their faith as it was shown
or will they turn their backs
and choose to be alone.

so many questions that they must ask
for this is part of a mothers task.
so MOTHER MARY we pray to you, that you
will always tell us what we must do.

the faith that we have in you
shows on this MOTHERS DAY.

and our belief will not stray.
