A Mother's Love Is a Haven in the Storm of Life
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 souls 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.
(Too mother with love)
