What makes a Mother
I thought of you and closed my eyes
And I prayed to God today.
I asked what makes a Mother
And I know I heard him say...
A mother has a baby
This we know is true.
But God, can you be a Mother
when your baby is not with you?
Yes, you can He replied,
With confidence in His voice.
I give many women babies
When they leave in not their choice.
Some I send for lifetime,
And others just for a day.
And some I send to feel your womb,
But there`s no need to stay.
I just don`t understand this God,
I want my baby here.
He took a breath and Cleared His throat
And then I saw a tear.
I wish I could show you
what your child is doing today.
If you could see your child smile
With other children and say:
" We go to the earth to learn our lessons
Of love and life and fear.
My mommy loved Oh so much
I got to come straight here.
I feel so lucky to have a mom
Who has so much love for me.
I learned my lessons very quickly,
my mother set me free.
I miss my mommy Oh so much,
But i visit every day,
When she goes to sleep
On her pillow is where I lay.
I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek
And I whisper in her ear;
Mommy don`t be sad today,
I`m your baby and I`m here"
So, you see my dear sweet one,
Your children are not blue,
Your babies are here in My home,
They`ll be at Heaven`s gate waiting for you.
So now yo see what makes a mother,
It`s the feeling in your heart,
It`s the love you had so much of,
Right from the very start.
