| I loved you from the very start, You stole my breath, then broke my heart. As I was with child, I thought of you, But when you left my world was blue. I'll never watch you while you sleep, Your crib is empty, for that I weep, I'll never teach you how to pray, Or walk and talk and play each day. I dreamed of things that we could share And how I'd rock you in my chair, I'll never see your pretty face, Or hold you close, in sweet embrace, I'll never watch you drink your milk, Or stroke your hair, as soft as silk. Your crib is empty, little one, Because I know that you have gone To that great heaven, up above, Where every day I send my love. Yes you are in God's Holy land, He came to earth and took your hand. Your crib is empty, that I see, You sleep in Heaven's nursery. By Dawn Glenton |

How Can I? How can I ever just stop loving The ones that now make me so sad? How can I ever stop really hurting And thinking that life is so bad? Is there a life here without you? Are you sure I will see you again? How do I know if you miss me And love me and live without pain? How can I wake in the morning And bask in the glorious sun? Do you know it is harder than iron To live without being a 'mum?' Was I just not meant to be caring, And gentle to little ones born? How can I live on here without you, My life and my heart all forlorn? Are you really up there with the Angels Just playing and waiting for me? Is there really a Lord in that Heaven With a place He has saved just for me? How can I go on living without you? I'll tell you my sweet little dears, I BELIEVE that what's said in the bible, And God will wipe all of my tears. Together we'll chase all the rainbows And we WILL find that old pot of gold, And beauty and love will surround us In a place where we never grow old. I WILL wrap my arms round you tightly Embracing you all with my love, That glorious day I'm a mummy To all of my Angels above. By Dawn Glenton |

| 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 God 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 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 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 Mummy loved me oh so much I got to come straight here. I feel so lucky to have a Mum who had so much love for me I learned my lessons very quickly, my Mummy set me free. I miss my Mummy 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 Mummy don't be sad today. I'm your baby and I'm here." So you see my dear sweet one, your children are ok. Your babes are here in My home and this is where they'll stay. They'll wait for you with Me until your lesson's 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. Though some on earth may not realize until their time is done Remember all the love you have and you are a Special Mum! (Author Unknown) |
