From Your Child

Oh Mother, My Mother

I touch your tears

Invisible fingers

Soothing your skin

I know you think of me often

In the day, in the night

In your dreams

Going into a empty nursery

Knowing I'll never be there

But I am... In your heart

In your soul, I shall always be

For you gave so unselfishly

Of yourself

Inside of you, you created

Such a world for me

A world of laughter, of love

Of sadness, of sorrow

Every emotion people come to know

You shared with me.

And even though I may never

Feel your arms around me.

I felt your heart beating

Like a lullaby, singing me to sleep

And your spirit giving me a safe haven

Already protecting me

Nurturing me

Preparing me for things to come

But sometimes the Journey

Of life pulls souls apart

And Yes, I had to go on

To another place

I wish I could stay

I wish this was a decision

I could make

And I know you do to

Know this... Wherever you are....

I will always remember

That yours was the first love

The first joy, the first soul

I will ever know

You gave me the courage to

go on in my journey

I hope I can do the same for you

Your heart beat will always

Call me to you

Love, Your Child.....
