....A Mother's Love.....
A little baby Elephant
Lay lifeless in the dust .
His mother tried so hard in vain
To lift him with her tusks.
She tried so very very hard ,
as down the hot sun beat.
She tried in desperation ...
to lift him to his feet.
The herd stood in a circle , in solemn , silent grief ...
In tribute to this little calf ,
who's life had been so brief....
It tore me up competely ....
to see his mother's pain...
She finally understood that he ,
would not get up again.
She stroked him for a long long time ,
caressed him with her trunk .
And Then in long , slow, deep deep breaths ...
his baby "scent" was drunk.
The herd encouraged her to move , in quiet saddened call.
And though she tried and tried she found,
she couldn't leave her son _ at all....
She tried and tried to walk away,
But turned each time, on weary limb
to have just one last look at him,
with sorrow etched upon her face ,
she finally left his resting place .
No words were needed to explain , but if she could have spoken...
She would have told us just how much ,
her gentle heart was broken.....
Testimony of a mother's Love.

Years ago .. in order to try and support my babies , I took a job at nightime in a petrol station.
I did this for 5 years ... Working from 10pm at night until 6am in the morning .... I had been up from 6am the previous day.. and when I finished my shift I had to remain "awake " for at least another 12 hours with a toddler son... ( His older siblings were in primary school ).....
Needless to say I was brain-dead.
I do not know, to this day, how I did it .
And I only wish I had never done it
However ...
I did it at the time.
The garage was in the edge of a very dangerous , notorious , housing estate.
Drugs and violence were commonplace ....
And one night I took with me to work , a doughnut.
I wrote a poem.... As follows..
Hope you all enjoy ....

...
I sat alone in the office , feeling rather peckish.
No customers for hours and hours ,
So I thought "what the heckish"....
I'll have my big jam doughnut ...
What I brought with me ..
I'll sit and scoff the whole thing down ...
With a nice hot cup of tea....
I took a great big juicy bite ...
Jam "oozed out " from within...
It missed my Gob completely ...
And landed on my chin....
Just then I got a customer...
A dreg... No less , who saw....
Me float out from the office ,
With a chin that looked red raw .
Not only was my chin all red ,
Around my mouth was sugar....
If only I had known
I would have thought "oh b****y b****r"....
I smiled at him so sweetly too
With doughnut betwixt my gums.
And when I took his 5 pound note
It stuck to my fingers and thumbs.
The "dreg" , he tried to make a joke
"Now I know why you only work nights ".....
"You can't come out in the sunlight ...
Cos you're the sort wot bites ..."""
Of course I knew not what he meant ...
His face , it showed rejection....
So I went to look in the mirror...
Good God...
There was no reflection.....
Well I guess that means I'm a vampire ...
But being lovely ... And nice ...
Like I am....
I can't BEAR to suck humans for blood ...
Instead ...
I suck doughnuts for jam......

How strange...
How strange indeed, that I should choose to re-call this poem and quote/ share it with the forum ...
Just 5 days before devastating events in my personal life that would be the ultimate example of a mother's Love ...
My beautiful son and daughter-in-law and their little daughter are going through the worst battle of their lives right now...
And I myself... Mum, mum in law...and grandma.... Go through it too
I am very much that mummy elephant right now.
We may not all be able to talk.
But we all have a heart that beats
We all think
We all feel
We all grieve
We all feel pain
Come on my darling little Olive...
Grandma pick you up and breathe life back into your tiny little being ....
