THE PROMISE OF MOTHERS AND RAINBOWS
Before god sculpted the rainbow,
A promise signed in several colors,
He designed the loving mother.
Like the rainbow,
She dispels sadness, pain and tears,
With the loving care
And the promise
Of many bright tomorrows.
Just as God’s rainbows promise
That brooding cloudbursts
Must give way
To the shining of the sun,
The warmth
Of a mother’s smile
Pierces any gloom
And radiates happiness
To her loved ones.
Through answered prayers
And sacred covenants
God gives an abundance
Of love, grace, joy, and faith
To gladly sharing mothers.
Thank you lord
For creating
Mothers!
