This Country Needs Its Mothers



She loves unconditionally

She protects with ferocity

She provides with tenacity

She encourages with pride

She corrects with consistency

She teaches with foresight

She weathers with perseverance

She listens with understanding

She counsels with wisdom

She considers with respect

She challenges with reason

She celebrates with joy

She suffers with worry

She embraces with gentleness

She reaches with confidence

She waits with patience

She carries with strength

   She loves

        She loves

To the baby crying softly, your Mamas are here

To the child feeling lost, your Mamas are here

To the teen seeking answers, your Mamas are here

To the man who couldn’t breathe, your Mamas are here.

To the country demanding better, your Mamas are here.
