EVE'S CONTRIBUTION

Thank you Lord for Eve
The wife of first made man
You gave her for a help mate
In your eternal plan

The first bearer of a baby
The first mom in all the world
Given the task to propagate
From hence which came some girls

Adam and Eve together
In true marital bliss
Started the first family in the world
This was true progress

That first word of "mother"
Came from her first born child
A very nuturing name for sure
That mother meek and mild

And down through all these ages
Mom's the word you know
Nothing enduring like that name
It's for mother's like you

God has made you special
The bearer of each child
Such a love not given Father's
As in her arms you're held

Mom's are loving creatures
God's blessed them O so much
Nothing ever seems the same
As the hands of a mother's touch

So mom's...my hat's off to you
High fives all around
Since the very inception of Eve
You've stood your solid ground

Your love bestowed Upon each child
Yes each and everyone
Warrants the praise of a true high calling
To be blessed with the name of "mom"!

About the Poet
I came to know the Lord as my personal Saviour in January of 1972. I was married on Oct 21,1966 to my wife Linda who also loves the Lord. We have ten children and now twenty-four grand children. In Aug 2012 we got the announcement of the birth of our first GREAT grand child (a baby girl). I was thrilled to find others of like precious faith and belief in Jesus Christ. Hallelujah! What a Savior! I am presently living in Champion, Alberta, Canada but we are originally from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada. That is where the poem Canadian Tribute to America was birthed. One Sunday as I walked across the city on my way to church I came to the top of a hill and looked across at Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan. After watching the events of the Sept 11 tragedy it was weighing on my heart and mind and the Lord gave me these words. We came to Calgary and when my oldest daughter saw this poem she said, �Dad, what�s this?� and I said a poem and she replied �Dad, that�s not a poem , that�s a song� and she then went to the piano and began to sing and play it. The result of which turned into a song entitled, A Canadian Tribute to America which she recorded on CD. garyjamessmith2005@yahoo.ca
