Mother`s Heart.


A mother tries to be the
strongest anchor
and do all the right things…..

A mother’s heart
has been broken
- many times........


Sometimes it feels like being
stabbed by a knife
- as if the heart has been cut
into 1000 pieces,
- when something happens to
the child.

A mother will always try to
- pick up the pieces
- heal
and never give up
on this precious thing called;
- mother’s love.

A mother’s heart is like a flower
beautiful,
sensitive,
fragile and strong,
- but also need care and love to grow.

Opens up in the sunshine,
- closes when the night comes,
and always embrace the most important in life.

A mother’s heart cares,
- the children means everything.
When they are hurt and in pain,
a mother’s heart feels the same....
