Analysis of The Love of a Mother



A few clouds rolled in,
dark on the horizon.
But I wasn’t scared,
because you light up my life.
You are my sun,
shining brightly.
You drive the clouds away
and bring joy and warmth
to the sadness and cold.
Even in darkness,
you still sparkle
like the stars above.
The darkness doesn’t stop
the moon from glowing.
It only shines brighter.
