Mama's Face

By: Musue N. Haddad

Oh! Mama
Your face, that beautiful face;
Glowing with a joyful, beautiful smile
The warmth in your face,
Sparkling with divine love,
Glorifying the heavens above.

Oh! Mama
Your joy, your smile;
The brightness in your eyes,
Not a word,
Warmth of your closeness, worthwhile,
Speaks volume of your mission

My Mama
Thanks for your ever presence
Each with unique radiance
Picket, a barrier, bolster, fortify
Empathized, a rare timely mergence.
Thank you Mama!

My dear Mama
You’ve always been there
Rocky, narrow path, nowhere
Freezing cold, crying child
Never alone on the journey,
This I know.

Oh Mama
Sometimes it is cruel,
The pains, heartache,awful,
Wounding remarks from numskull
Mockeries and sarcasm, wrongful
Tears the already weary heart.

Yes Mama
Tis our season of breakthrough
Mighty, beautiful new beginning
For your grandchild and me, soaring,
Successful, prosperous destinies, anew
My heart is grateful.
