~ A Mothers Grief ~
She was only a tiny little
girl
Who lived just a few short
years.
She has gone to live with
angels
And left a mother to shed
her tears.
She questions "Why not me"
Lord?
Why this little child of
mine??
I just don't understand the
why,
And wonder if I will in
time.
I know each child is a gift
on loan.
A precious gift from God
above.
Ours to cherish more than
anything,
For it is a gift that
teaches us love.
For now, every single day
Will start and end with
tears.
How long before this
sadness,
So overwhelming now,
disappears?
Will this mother ever find
joy
As she watches another child
play??
Will another child's
laughter
Help to take the pain away??
She knows this grief is
normal
And only time will heal her
heart.
When once more she can smile
She knows the healing will
start.
She knows that life goes on,
Things she must do every
day.
But God is aware of her pain
And He will help to take it
away.
For the child is now safe in
His arms,
Among other angels in Heaven
above.
Her spirit is once more
happy and free
Remembering a mothers true
love.
