A Mother In War
Win Rainer
29/05/04
The incredible mother her love tender and true
Stands by her family in war and what they do,
To comfort them, they know, helps them to be strong
Through battles that terrify, without mercy go on,
Badly wounded men without hope, call out for their mum
Screaming planes dive to bomb, thunder of the big gun,
Still this mother carries on in torment with no release
Cannot sleep at night, just praying for peace,
When peace finally comes, what price the pain
Her remaining young come home never to be young again,
That loving mums arm's open wide
Her face wreathed in smiles, only the heartache she hides.
