Dear God you’ve seen fit
To grace me with the good
and beautiful gift
Of motherhood
Let me never squander
Love’s whispers of gold
But cherish with wonder
This treasure I hold
…in a name more lovely (and daunting)
than any other
As children look to me
And call me
Mother

This is a beautiful poem, Janet. We cannot take Mother's Day for granted. We cannot take motherhood for granted. Children are such a gift. Happy Mother's Day to you.
ReplyDeleteHi Mary!
ReplyDeleteYes we are blessed, so blessed to have known love's best! Children...and grand children are such a gift. God bless you as you tenderly and patiently continue to 'mother'. I was thinking about you as I worked outside today.
