A Mother
by Father Keith Mason
As God planned for all creations
In those days of genesis
He Instituted qualities
Of sweetness and of bliss!
God lifted veils of darkness
As He pondered what should be –
As birth evolves through water,
God made one common sea!
To continents HE then gave birth,
He planted trees and flowers;
He gave the earth some animals
And rained some warm spring showers!
When God he finished all that work,
He raised His eyes in wonder –
That His creation, beautiful,
No force aspire to plunder!
He moved the gates of Heaven – in love –
He breathed life to another;
From deep inside His caring heart,
God gave the world – a Mother!
