\"Mothers Who Dare\"

“Mothers Who Dare”
(Tom Entrican 05/08/22)
 
They raise their kiddies keeping them in sight
And nurse their fevers all through the night
They stitch, they cook, and always with care
Such is the love of Mothers who dare
 
Mothers make fathers do things when they won’t
Like buy you a pony and a really fast boat
They wipe away tears and are always right there
And spank when needed, the Mothers who dare
 
They fix all our lunches, get us on the bus
While wearing hair curlers and cleaning up dust
Then when we get home, with a bowl she cuts hair
Greets dad after work these Mothers who dare
 
She loves us despite the fact that we grow up
And cleans out our mouths when we boldly cuss
Warms the seat of our britches and tells us beware
But still gives us hugs our Mothers who dare
 
Oh no one to wash us and no one to cheer
Why if not for our Mothers we would not be here
Without any Mother would Jesus be there
To give all that strength to Mothers who dare?
 
When Mothers leave for their home up above
They always take with them a part of our love
Our hearts hold memories till we see them up there
At our final homecoming with Mothers who dare
