A Mother's Love  By Helen Steiner Rice. A mother's love is like an island In life's ocean vast and wide, A peaceful, quiet shelter From the restless, rising tide. A mother's love is like a fortress And we seek protection there When the waves of tribulation Seem to drown us in despair. A mother's love is a sanctuary Where our soul can find sweet rest From the struggle and the tension Of life's fast and futile quest. A mother's love is like a tower Rising far above the crowd, And her smile is like the sunshine Breaking through a threatening cloud. A mother's love is like a beacon Burning bright with Faith and Prayer And through the changing scenes of life We can find a haven there.... For a mother's love is fashioned After God's enduring love, It is endless and unfailing Like the love of Him above. For God knew in His great wisdom That he couldn't be everywhere, So he put His little Children In a loving mother's care. Tiles and artwork by B.A.M.A. HTML By Malakye
