Its not late! Happy Mothers Day!!!

She has a pretty face,

She adorns herself in apparels,

But her pretty embodiment,

Is a beauty beneath the facial,

Within her is the availability of,

Care, tolerance, perseverance

And the unconditional love

We all have savoured all our Life.

She is a mother,

Whose breast I  had sucked for life,

Whose hands still cuddle me.

Mama! She dreams for me even when

My visions were blurred,

Her desired wants traded for,

My expected future/ambition.

Your clothes for mine,

Your Comfort for mine.

Nne Oma! Even when papa was down,

You stood tall but never taller than him,

You stood in the gap, You stayed on.

Mama hid her tears when I cry ,

She stays awake all night,

Just to watch me get well,

A mother’s worries never stops.

I call her blessed for she has

Knitted her family in love,

Knitted her hands in work

To bring bread to our table.

Even papa is proud of her.

She is a total woman.

I am proud of her

Because from her I came forth.

Mother! I salute your courage

I hail thee for the life you bring forth,

Your virtues are priceless.

Nneoma, may your days be long,

Long enough to enjoy your children.

Our mothers, we love you.
Ndi nne mama!!!
