The Mother, The Child

I used to think when a mother had passed over

The holding chain on the anchor of life 

which held you tight

Had forever gone

But I am so wrong!. Oh so wrong!

Nothing wipes that bond which starts at birth

With a mother’s  wondering look

At her perfect child

As she traces the face of the

Most talented babe ever to walk the earth

The bond that unites both

Mother and child will always be

So strong

They may cut the birth cord

But the job has been done by then

Nothing can break it

Not even death

The anchor just sinks further down

Into the loved one’s breast

Ready to offer support and help

At the child’s behest

The love that nothing can move

Is heaven blest.
