Only A Mother
Only A Mother
Nobody knows of the work it makes to keep the home together, nobody knows of the steps it takes, nobody knows--but mother.
Nobody listens to childish woes, which kisses only smother; nobody's pained by naughty blows, nobody--only mother.
Nobody knows of the sleepless care bestowed on baby brother; nobody knows of the tender prayer, nobody--only mother.
Nobody knows of the lessons taught of loving one another; nobody knows of the patience sought, nobody--only mother.
Nobody knows of the anxious fears, lest darlings may not weather the storm of life in after years, nobody knows--but mother.
Nobody kneels at the throne above to thank the Heavenly Father for that sweetest gift--a mother's love; nobody can--but mother.
