A Mother's Gift of Love

There are no words
That can erase the pain you feel
The news you have gotten
It all just seems surreal.

For it was not long ago
A newborn was laid in your arms
You held him tight and whispered a promise
To keep him safe from all earth’s harms.

Many scrapes and bruises
You dried up many tears
You were the one
To comfort all his fears.

But something doesn’t feel right
As you have awoken
Your promise, you must feel
Has been broken.

But fear not,
There are no faults in your ways
For You gave one special gift
That always he held close throughout his days.

We may find it hard to understand
But this was always the plan
To eternal life he rose
As the Angels gently took his hand.

He now sits
In Heaven Above
Keeping watch over you
The Mother who gave him the GIFT OF LOVE.
