A Mother's Prayer

As faithful as the morning sun — 
Suspended in the air,
Providing life for everyone — 
So is a mother’s prayer.
 
From pole to pole, from sea to sea,
No matter — night or day;
From every nationality — 
Another starts to pray.
 
Her faith can scale the highest peak
A mountain can ascend.
Her hope can cross the oceans — deep
On waves that have no end.
 
Her love can melt the coldest heart,
And crumble walls of stone.
Her family near or far apart — 
She prays for every one.
 
Sometimes she’ll pray for many years
Before her dream she sees;
Yet few will know the trail of tears
She’s traveled on her knees.
 
The world is full of broken homes,
Of sorrow and despair;
But faithful as the morning comes,
So is a mother’s prayer.
