A Mother's Love For Her Child
Dedicated To My Two Amazing Daughters
My daughters are my strongest weakness
and they are God's beautiful gift
Few things are as powerful than a mother's love
and for this she will never quit
I was not wealthy and could not give them much
and they truley deserved much more
Wealth in currency was not within my touch
and I depended a lot on the Lord
My work took me away a lot which to them was a sin
love for them within my heart grew
And my absentence did not make me thier best friend
I hope they can remember me fondly
as the many years pass and I grow old
And hold dear our memories gladly
For I truly love them so
Linda Browning Alicea
