Like the invisible love

Like the earth’s fertility

Motherhood is known for its

Warmth and geniality

Normally, in her own womb

She grows and nurtures her child

Several times, in her heart

She develops a dream child

Just in case one does not have

biological baby

May go for adoption or

For surrogacy maybe

As long as she loves and cares

She is a mother indeed

Looking after a hapless child

As the earth loves all her breed

Even predator female

Has a sea of love in her heart

She’s full of tender feelings

So sweet as never before

It’s a widespread global trait

It’s common in all species

Every creature on this earth

Knows mothers’ nobilities
