My Beloved Mother


My Beloved Mother

 

My mother’s gentle touch, her soft lips that whispered hush.

A gentle creature, no one as lovely as she…

God’s beautiful gift bestowed upon me.

A flower bed was the fragrance of her flesh, as sweet as roses and silk to the touch.

Now she lay to rest, my loss is deep for a mother’s love is best.

Beneath the snow, buried deep, where earth and flowers lay heaped…

I have finally come to you so I may pray and weep.

If my mind begins to doubt, or my heart begins to fear, that your spirit is no longer near…

I will listen closely as the wind whispers through the trees

Your sweet words will be carried to me upon a gentle breeze.

The earthly bond of mother and daughter has been broken

I look now to the future with my newborn son…

God has spoken
