 Mother's Tears 
by Lorraine
Lawrence
A mother’s tears is
expression.
Anger, fright, fear, sadness and
love.
It slowly slips down her
cheek.
To give her some kind of
relief.
Only it knows the
grief.
A mother’s tears is like a lonely
river.
As it tries to flow to
sea.
A vision of her children grown and
carefree.
Mother’s tears tell of happy
beginnings and sad endings.
Mother’s tears are like no
other.
For at times they will start and
know no end.
Yet she ask for God to give
her strength to carry on.
And see beyond her tears she
sheds.
Mother’s tears only she can stop
the flow.
Yet she knows this is reality and
no dream.
Mother’s tears she knows she will
continue to shed.
Whether happy, sad, loneliness,
fear ,fright or love.
They will continue to
flow.
