Bearing a sweet scented name of the
Holy Book
From cradle an angel sent on earth
To bear the pangs of childbirth to
Greats
She’s none but my Queen Mother-A
pillar
Like a tender plant she sequentially
navigates through life
From stage of birth to grace a mother
of all nation
Once a pretty baby, now a woman of
virtue
She’s none but my angelic mother-a
shelter
Her husband looked, saw and conquered
her in love
Gave all to build but a paradise here
on earth
Strenuously strives for her children
wellbeing
She’s none but one an only Queen
Mother-a rock
Symmetrically raised us-a whole wild
world to brave
Fought our battles-only on her knees
she won
Jealously guarding-our good and lives
to secure
She’s none but my indefatigable Queen
Mother-of my heart
Gave us hope when life seems unsure
Gallantly on her knees praying for Divine
love and care
Faithfully moulding our life towards
our destiny here on earth
No one can be like you oh my Queen
mother so graciously adored
What I am today and what I shall
always be
I owe it all to you-cause you are
God-given to your children
If not for your loving care-where
would have been my home?
None like you oh my Queen mother- par
excellence
Your early morning words of wisdom-my
compass be
Leading me untoward the path of grace
Your disciplinary measures so earlier
in life to save from evil traps
Now I will appreciate you Mother-my
role model, my love
Let me praise your sterling qualities
now-you are worthy of our adoration
What can I give to compensate for
your firm love and volition?
Nothing in precious treasures of
earth can fill your love void in my heart
A mother so sweet, so dear and good
Now I’m made- a grown man I am
Shall repay you your virtuosity
patterning my home after this similitude
With a maiden so beautifully endowed
as you do-that’s always your dream Mama
I pray God’s long life, good health
for you and your darling husband
God’s mercies and prosperity attend
to you daily-my Queen Mother Dorathy F. J. Akpan….
I LOVE YOU MUM.
Happy Mother's day!
