| "What Makes A Mother?" I thought of you and closed my eyes And 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's not with you? Yes, you can He replied With confidence in His voice I give many women babies When they leave is not their choice. Some I send for a lifetime And others 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 earth to learn our lessons Of love and life and fear. My mommy loved me oh so much I got to come straight here. I feel so lucky to have a Mom Who had so much love for me I learned my lesson very quickly My Mommy set me free. I miss my Mommy oh so much But I visit her each day. When she goes to sleep On her pillow's where I lay. I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek And 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 child is ok Your baby is here in My home And this is where they'll stay. They'll wait for you with Me Until your lesson is through. And on the day that you come home They'll be at the gates for you. So, now you 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. "Mommy Please Don't Cry" Mommy please don't cry I really had to go Please tell Daddy I love him The way he loves me so. There are no tears in heaven There's no such thing as sorrow There are no painful illnesses Only the brightest of tomorrows. Oh Mommy! You should see it It's as beautiful as you. Oh Daddy! It's so wonderful You'll know this some day too. There are children dancing everywhere Through flowers of all kind With puppies pouncing at our feet Can you see it in your mind? There are never any clouds up here Only the bluest skies above The sun shines brightly overhead As angels sing songs of love. There is no such thing as wishing For everything is here And Jesus gives us hugs all day To cast away our fears. You know I'll always be with you Wherever you may go May the memories of my twinkling eyes Give you courage and strength, together, to grow. You both took such good care of me In my short time there on earth I hope you know and understand What your love, to me, was worth. I know your heart may hurt at times And it's difficult not to cry But just imagine me with wings As an Angel...I can fly! The best parents in the whole wide world You gave ten lifetimes of love and joy Your smiling and comforting filled me up I'm so happy God made me your baby boy! So Daddy, don't let Mommy cry 'Cause if she does, you might. Just tell her that I'm safe and sound Dreaming of you both tonight. Written by Donna Martin Though some on earth may not realize you are a Mother, Until their time is done. They'll be up here with Me one day And you know you're the best one! |
