A Mother’S Voice

By Lisa Morley

A Mothers Voice pours out words spoken by mothers and distills them into tiny drops of priceless moments where one can hear the humorous words of children as they interact with Mom, or the prayers of a mother as she seeks for the hopes she has for her children to be met, or sometimes one can hear a mother whisper to ones heart when she is no longer there and causes one to question, Do I really sound like my mother?
