A Mother's Song Poem by Coreatha mccoy

A mothers song
I sang a song today
A song that will never go away
How can one take life
Given to a mother to create
A mother cries
while her child dies
watching people look and walk by
while she wonder's why

I sang a mothers song today
a song that will never go away
she works hard for little
Feeling less and stuck in the middle
raising her children
no man to provide
But God is her guide
she's a proud woman, never loud
soft word and always heard
she sang a song today
a song that will never go away

On Sunday morning
Kids better wake, no warning
shes praying and singing
kids outside swinging
yelling you have on a skirt!
Boys get out of that dirt!
Always taking care of others
even if it were for another
making sure her family better be in that church
I sang a song today
now her time has come for her to go away

Never once question
how life was unfair
and if someone cared
she just moved along with the flow
did what any mother should know,
even until end, barely could walk but full of strength
she lives life very well spent
she endure and so adored
eternal life, she shall have God's reward
The way she lived it will be ever in-stored
Shes flown away
A mothers song i sang today
