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 it is not their choice 
Some I send for a lifetime 
And others for the 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 Here

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, 
but My mommy loved me 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 lessons 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 is where I lay 
I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek 
And whisper in her ear 
"Mommy, Please don't be sad today 
I'm your baby and I am here"

So you see my dear sweet one 
Your children are okay 
Your babies are here in My home 
And this is where they'll stay 
They'll wait for you with Me 
Until your lessons there are through 
And on the day that you come home 
they'll be at the gates waiting 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

Think of Me

 

When you’re feeling sad or a little blue,

Look around and you’ll see I’m here with you

I’m the bird who soars so high above

I’m the one who filled your heart with love

Don't let them say  I wasnt Born

 

Don’t let them say, I wasn’t born

That something stopped my heart

I felt each tender squeeze you gave
I’ve loved you from the start.

Although my body you can’t hold,
It doesn’t mean I’m gone.
This world was worthy, not, of me
God chose that I move on.

I know the pain that drowns your soul,
What you are forced to face.
You have my word, I’ll fill your arms
Someday we will embrace.

You’ll hear that it was “meant to be,
God doesn’t make mistakes”
But that won’t soften your worst blow.

Or make your heart not ache.

I’m watching over all you do,
another child you’ll bear.
Believe me when I say to you,

That I am always there.

There will come a time, I promise you
When you will hold my hand,
Stroke my face and kiss my lips
And then you’ll understand.

Although, I’ve never breathed your air,
Or gazed into your eyes..
That doesn’t mean I never “was”
An Angel Never Dies

Little Snowdrop
 

The world may never notice 
If a Snowdrop doesn't bloom,
Or even pause to wonder 
If the petals fall too soon. 
But every life that ever forms, 
Or ever comes to be, 
Touches the world in some small way 
For all eternity. 
The little one we long for 
Was swiftly here and gone. 
But the love that was then planted
Is a light that still shines on. 
And though our arms are empty,
Our hearts know what to do. 
Every beating of our hearts 
Says that we love you

If Tears Could Build A Stairway
 

If tears could build a stairway 
And memories were a lane 
We would walk right up to Heaven 
And bring you back again

No farewell words were spoken 
No time to say goodbye 
You were gone before we knew it 
And only God knows why

Our hearts still ache in sadness 
And secret tears still flow 
What it meant to lose you 
No on will ever know

But know we know you want us 
To mourn for you no more 
To remember all the happy times 
Life still has much in store

Since you’ll never be forgotten 
We pledge to you today 
A hallowed place within our hearts 
Is where you’ll always stay

The Cord
 

We are connected,
My child and I, by
An invisible cord
Not seen by the eye.

It's not like the cord
That connects us 'til birth
This cord can't been seen
By any on Earth.


This cord does it's work
Right from the start.
It binds us together
Attached to my heart.

I know that it's there
Though no one can see
The invisible cord
From my child to me.

The strength of this cord
Is hard to describe.
It can't be destroyed

It can't be denied.


It's stronger than any cord
Man could create
It withstands the test
Can hold any weight.


And though you are gone,
Though you're not here with me,
The cord is still there
But no one can see.

It pulls at my heart
I am bruised...I am sore,
But this cord is my lifeline
As never before.

I am thankful that God
Connects us this way
A mother and child
Death can't take it away!

Tiny Angels
 

Tiny Angels rest your wings
sit with me for awhile.
How I long to hold your hand,
And see your tender smile.
Tiny Angel, look at me,
I want this image clear...
That I will forget your precious face
Is my biggest fear.
Tiny Angel can you tell me,
Why you have gone away?
You weren't here for very long...
Why is it, you couldn't stay?
Tiny Angel shook his head,"
These things I do not know...
But I do know that you love me,
And that I love you so.
