One day isn’t going to define you..
You’ve never left your hood.
But it should be there just incase
we forgets to honour the very reason we exist..
That we fill the world because of you
That some might lack a paternal
But a maternal will always be there
Mother stands for battles you fought secretly
so we might never know how much it costs.
Mother also means the dusty roads you walked barefoot,
That we may drive on tarmac
Your love is pure, endless, selfless
It gives without expecting
Its neither a flatter nor does it fails
It believes beyond believing
And when the world condems,
She will take you in, she already did
Her love resembles that one of God.
She doesn’t have to keep saying it.. But you know
And its still a secret, a mystery of creation
A mothers is one wonderful evidence that God’s gentle hand still leads us.
Happy mothers’ season
Nyambura ndungu
