PROLOGUE:
Some don’t quite get it…
Life will reveal it to you:
Mothers are of God.

Keeping hope alive…
Strong stalwart sable sisters:
These are our mothers.

Ebony beauty…
Sustaining us in all things:
God bless our Mothers.

Beautiful sable souls…
Audaciously bold in faith:
Praise God for Mamas.

Ploughing up our hope…
Tears nourishing our courage:
Moms cultivate men.
E
God’s labouring wombs…
Moulding navels of His love:
Mothers…God’s angels…

Happy Mothers’ Day…
Queens of our eternity:
Navel giving souls…
