Mother's Love

She sits by the door just to make sure

her babies have a good sleep

She stays awake, jumping up at every

little sound

Oh what love can be received

That is more than a mother's love

She stays hungry so that her babies will

have a meat.

She listens to their quiet grumble

And then she makes sure all their problems are solved

No matter how old her babies are

She will always stay awake for them

Perseverance has become her pillor

As she hopes for a better life for them

Staying without a cover

Just to make her babies are covered

And then she is grateful and doesn't mind

Being uncovered

What sort of love is greater than a mother's.
