For a wonderful lady...coco

Tears of a Rock


 


Oh she hasn’t forgotten how to smile


Though most women would have by now


She looks after her brood of young ones


And knows she’ll get by somehow


 


She’s had so many woes and sorrows


Come knocking at her door in pain


A lesser woman might have faltered


Gave up or at the least gone insane


 


The man she loves is failing fast


One miracle child needs extra love


The others all need to be fed and clothed


She’s begs for God’s help from above


 


So many arms reach out to her


She conceals her own pain deep inside


A rock she stands as their fortress


A rock that cannot cry with pride.

Amazing what a woman can endure, and does, simply because she must! She cries. Into her pillow so no one may hear. A release, and then she drys her eyes and gets back to the business of caring for those she loves. God gives her the strength. Wonderful tribute to a wife and mother...Lin

Another stunning tribute, Felix, and I salute this precious lady's sublime spirit and fortitude. She must be blessed to know that she has your unyielding support and encouragement, too. Although she has learned that inner strength, I am sure that this will just MELT her and allow those bittersweet tears of pain and gladness to come. You must show this to her sometime. It is always a wonderful and humbling experience when a mirror is held up to own face, revealing the goodness that others see in us when WE see perhaps only the flaws. Beautiful and upbuilding, Felix, as ever. You can do no other than graciously inspire. Bless you and thank you, Kate xx
