Love Is Our Strength

A very dear friend gave me something that is precious to her, and now it is precious to me. She gave me something the helps her through, and now it helps me through. It is a ceramic Mama Bear. The Mama Bear symbolizes strength in adversity, and yet I am thinking maybe it symbolizes love more, because she gave me something she loves because she loves me. And then I got to thinking that love is our strength in adversity. And I was just thinking about all of this and wrote a little diddy. P.S. Mama is on my desk now looking at me :)


Mama Bear knows not fear
All she knows is what she holds dear
Love is her strength
To care for, protect, and guide her young
To teach them how to sing songs yet to be sung
Love is her strength

And Mama Bear stands strong
Looking her love into me
Guiding me along
Teaching me how to fight
Teaching me how to battle some light into this long night
Love is my strength

Love is our strength in adversity
Love is the strength that gets us to the top to look back and see
Just how far we have come
To see who we were and be proud of who we have become
Love is our strength
To live life, well and strong, in its length...
Love is our strength
