THE DISTINCT MOTHER
BENJAMIN CHUKWUEMEKA OKERE 1993 (Port Harcourt)
*The Distinct Mother*
Mother's are humans endeared with Godly qualities
They are viewed as weaker vessels with innate abilities
Mother's are special beings carved from Gods inner arms
And nurture their children with Godly charms.
Can you ever find a mother who is patient?
Whose beauty radiates beyond her beautiful garment?
Here she is, looking so young and strong
And her adoration never ceasing in her husbands tongue.
Can you find a woman so caring and submissive?
Charming, authoritative and supportive?
Here she is with her character so humble
And her deeds so Noble.
Today, we honour this distinct Mother
Seated amongst Queens while her Good will we utter
Here is the Quintessential Woman, so dutiful & respectful
In you, indeed is a servant who is Godly & Faithful.
