Classic Poem

God thought to give the sweetest thing
— In his almighty power
To earth; and deeply pondering
— What it should be — one hour
In fondest joy and love of heart
— Outweighing every other,
He moved the gates of heaven apart
— And gave to earth — a Mother!

God thought to give the sweetest thing
In his almighty power
To earth; and deeply pondering
What it should be — one hour
In fondest joy and love of heart
Outweighing every other,
He moved the gates of heaven apart
And gave to earth — a Mother!
