Portrait Of A Mother







Portrait Of A Mother
The bravest battle that was ever fought
Shall I tell you where and when ?
On the maps of the world you'll find it not
Twas fought by the mothers of men



Nay not with cannon or battle shot
With swords or noble pen
Nay not with the eloquent word or thought
From the mouths of wonderful men



But deep in the walled up woman's heart
Of women that would not yield
But bravely , silently bore their part
Lo , there is the battlefield



No marshaling troops no bivouac song
No banner to gleam and wave
But oh these battles last so long
From babyhood, to the grave
Author unknown

The above poem was found in an
old baptist church bible
dated 1967 around the time
of the Viet Nam war.

May God Bless all the Mother's in the world!
