FOR MOM
A Mother's Love runs deep
More profound than her child will ever know
It isn't until her daughter holds her own
Will she possibly comprehend the meaning of love
I never truly knew how my mother felt about me
Until I held my sweet babes
It was at that moment I understood
Just how much she cared
We finally shared a bond
So common, yet so miraculous
I looked to her for guidance
And she gave it to me without judgement
Her kind words and advice
Came quickly to reality
She was my mentor and my friend
Without her I was lost
So many times she had gone
Above and beyond the call of a mother
I wanted to say, "Thank You"
And convey how grateful I was
For everything she had done
Not just while I was a mother
But especially for when
I was her daughter.

THE MIRACLE OF MOTHERHOOD
Dear God, what a treasure
You've placed here with me.
You've opened my heart
To what loving can be.
A love so intense,
Yet so gentle and caring;
A feeling of awe
At the beauty of sharing.
This sweet child of mine
Has enriched my life so,
And in just a few moments
Has helped me to grow.
From woman to Mother-
It's swept me away;
And I'm thankful, dear Lord,
This child's with me today.
Please grant me the patience
For endless demands,
And help me give comfort
To small, pleading hands.
The love that created
This precious, dear child
Was our gift from Heaven;
God looked down and smiled.
