A Mother's Care

A mother's care, a tender love,
That shields her child from every harm,
A blessing sent from realms above,
A constant, life-preserving charm.
Through sleepless nights and weary days,
Her watchful eye is ever near,
And guides them through life's winding maze,
Dispelling doubt, and calming fear.
