Mother’s Enduring Love Reflected In a Painted Halo
A lyrical tribute-schoolyard memory speaks of a mother whose aging beauty and white hair symbolize steadfast love. The speaker vows to paint her face with the tenderness shining in dark eyes, a steadfast smile, and work worn hands lifted in prayer for her child. The unfading memory of divine love defines the image.
