The joy that you will give
Caught within the glow of you
For all the life we live
Forever wrapped inside
All these precious moments
My heart for you reside
Gentle touch so rare
A memory that I embrace
In every day we share
My pleasure that will be
Tiny hand that reaches out
Will always comfort for me
Within my soul resides
Beauty that's reflected in
The joy that fills these eyes
Of love beyond compare
Child of mine has captured this
Sweet touch of love to share.
POETRY~EMOTION
It takes a Mother�s Love to
make a house a home,
a place to be remembered,
no matter where we roam.
It takes a Mother�s Patience
to bring a child up right,
and her Courage and her Cheerfulness
to make a dark day bright.
it takes a Mother�s Thoughtfulness
to mend the heart�s deep �hurts�,
and her Skill and her Endurance
to mend little socks and shirts.
It takes a Mother�s Kindness
to forgive us when we err
to sympathize in trouble
and bow her head in prayer.
It takes a Mother�s Wisdom to
recognize our needs and to
give us reassurance by
her loving words and deeds.
It takes a Mother�s Endless Faith,
her Confidence and Trust
to guide us through the pitfalls
of selfishness and lust.
And that is why in all this world
there could not be another
who could fulfill God�s purpose
as completely as
A Mother!

"When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith
That is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois and mother Eunice."
2 Timothy 1:5
