When we usually think of Mothers

Our own Dearest comes to mind,

The one who brought us from her womb

And who our youngest eyes did find.

Who held us in her loving arms

At who’s breast we early fed,

Who comforted us throughout our tears

And who tucked us into bed.

Who tried to teach us right from wrong

And guide us down our path,

To the men and women we’ve become

In this life’s aftermath.

But have we ever given thought

Back to the early days,

To the first woman, wife and mom

Created in God’s way?

Feminine perfection

Raised from Adam’s side,

To complement the man he was

As helpmeet and his bride.

She must have held all promise

In her beauty and her soul,

Spiritually at one with God

In Eden’s Paradise of old.

And though she failed God’s single test

And took forbidden fruit,

And paid the price that we still pay

She once again God knew,

And bore and raised them sons and daughters

Pointing them back to God,

Abel first, then later Seth

Who taught the Truth’s of God.

So when giving thanks for Mothers

Don’t forget to thank our God,

For the one He chose to procreate

All humanity abroad.
