"Mother"

“Mother”

God took the fragrance of a flower

The majesty of a tree

The gentleness of a morning dew

The calm of a quiet sea

The beauty of a twilight hour

The soul of a starry night

The laughter of a babbling brook

The grace of a bird in flight

The tender care of an angel

The faith of a mustard seed

The patience of eternity

The depth of a family’s need

Then God fashioned from these things a

Creation like no other

And when His masterpiece was finished

He simply called it…

“Mother”

 

Happy Mother’s Day
