What is a Mother?

What is a mother? Who shall answer this?A mother is a font and spring of life,A mother is a forest in whose heartLies hid a secret ancient as the hills,For men to claim and take its wealth away;And like the forest shall her wealth renewAnd give, and give again, that men may live.

- Francis Cardinal Spellman

Mother's LoveMother's LoveMother's LoveMother's Love

Her love is like an islandIn life's ocean, vast and wideA peaceful, quiet shelterFrom the wind, the rain, the tide.'Tis bound on the north by Hope,By Patience on the West,By tender Counsel on the SouthAnd on the East by Rest.Above it like a beacon lightShine Faith, and Truth, and Prayer;And thro' the changing scenes of lifeI find a haven there.

Page 9: In Praise of Mothers

Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come. She opens her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. She looks well to the ways of her household, and eats no the bread of idleness.Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her. Give her the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.

- Proverbs 31: 10, 25-31

Page 10: In Praise of Mothers

I loved her, oneNot learned, save in gracious household ways,Nor perfect, nay, but full of tender wants,No Angel instincts, breathing Paradise,Interpreter between the gods and men,

Who look'd all native to her place, and yetOn tiptoe seem'd to touch upon a sphereToo gross to tread,and all male minds perforceSway's to her from their orbitsas they moved,And girdled her with music. Happy he with such a mother! Faith in womenkind beats with his blood,and trust in all things high

Comes easy to him, and tho' he trip and fall,He shall not blind his soul with clay.

- Alfred Lord Tennyson
