When God Made Mother<\/h6>\n

When God made mother, from a spare rib,
\nIt transformed the world to include a crib.<\/p>\n

When God made mother, Eve came along,
\nSo did Mary and Christ was born.<\/p>\n

With this It did the greatest feat, updating
\nCommandments with forgiveness, what a treat!<\/p>\n

When God made mother, we came to know,
\nUnconditional loving is the way to go.<\/span><\/p>\n

For a mother can love and sacrifice
\nHer own desires, wants, needs,
\nShe forgives and forgets
\nTransgressions, ego\u2019s greeds.<\/p>\n

For many a mother, some softness brings
\nTo balance out aggression, in the scheme of things.<\/p>\n

When God made mother, it also came to pass
\nTo be made of stone and not of glass…<\/p>\n
