A MOTHER'S LOVE

.....IS NEVER ENDING; FAITHFUL EVER STRONG AND SECURED. FROM THE DAY SHE FIRST HELD YOU IN HER ARMS; YOUR LOVE WAS FULLY ASSURED.

SHE CARRIED YOU WITHIN HER BODY AND SOUL; 9-MONTHS ALLOWED THE BONDING OF THAT TIE. SHE LABORED TO BRING YOU INTO THE WORLD, TO FINALLY SEE YOU AND HEAR THAT PRESCIOUS... FIRST CRY.

THE YEARS FLEW SWIFTLY BY,.. FROM THE EARLY PART OF YOUR LIFE, TOO SOON YOU WERE ON YOUR OWN AND SEEKING A COMPANION WIFE.

HOW HARD IT IS FOR A "MOM" TO LET GO AND WATCH HER BELOVED YOUNG MEN LEAVE HOME, YET SHE KNOWS IN HER HEART;... THEY STILL BELONG TO HER, NO MATTER HOW FAR THEY MAY ROAM.

THOSE YEARS OF A MOTHERS LOVE; BONDING AND CARE WILL NEVER BE TORN ASUNDER. FOR ANY WHO TRY TO SEVER THOSE TIES; WOULD SOON HEAR THE "VOICE OF THUNDER"!

TOO MUCH ENDURED; AND TOO MUCH ENTRUSTED, TO ALLOW ANY TO "SHUT THAT DOOR", FOR THE SONS OF THIS MOTHER ARE PRESCIOUS INDEED, AND WILL BE FOREVER MORE.
