Poem- Every Woman is a Mother
Every woman is a mother when she folds her hands in prayer for a child.
Feeds one when he's hungry,
clothes him when he's cold,
or holds him when he's scared.
Listens to his hopes and dreams,
and tells him the world needs who he is.
Smiles as a child walks by,
or cries when she knows just one
child is crying somewhere in the world.
The conception for this woman becoming a mother takes place in her heart, and the delivery comes through her hands.
Every woman carries the ability and power to change the world one child at a time.
This birth is not measured in months, but spans her lifetime.
Every woman is a mother when she makes a difference in just one child.
Have you chosen to be a mother?
