A MOTHER'S CRY

Today i saw what it entails to be a mother
the cries and heart felt pains that comes under
she came out of the yard crying and pacing
asking if anyone has seen her baby
in a panic we all went searching
with rhetorical questions we keep asking
"where could he be"
"who carry am commot"
but those questions were flying without answers
and her patience was running faster
her hopes went low
as she keeps asking everyone, hoping somebody knows
but we were all as ignorant as we could be at the moment
only hoping he appears from somewhere
then somebody shouted "call pastor, maybe e carry am commot
so we did but he went out and with him the child was not
her panic grew, her eyes got redder
tears stay pouring like stormy weather
and suddenly we heard a cry coming from a neighbor's room
that is her baby just waking up too soon
and like magic, her teary eyes beams with smile
knowing her baby is still alive
but she has to wait for her neighbor to be back
before she would hold him in her loving arms
and give him the beating of his life
for giving her the mini heart attack she just survived
