The poem 'Somebody's mother' is written by Mary Dow Brine. It is not about one particular mother but in general about every mother whose boy has left her for a work.It was a winter evening. An old woman was waiting to cross a busy road near a school.She was a lone woman although she was very old.Suddenly children came out of the school as it closed for the day. They passed the lonely old woman but none paid any attention to the old lady. One of the boys, very cheerful and lively, saw this lady waiting to cross the road. He ran to her and helped her cross the road.Later he explained to his friends that one day his own mother could be in a similar situation and that someone else would help her.At home that night, the old lady prayed for the boy who had helped her cross the road. Her heart was overflowing with gratitude and pride.
She asked God to be kind to the noble boy because he helped her to cross the road when no one bothered to help her. She thought how lucky the mother is to have a son like him and one day his mother will be helped like this by somebody's son when her own son is away. It teaches us that what we do to others that only we get back to us.
Thank you
