The Watcher
              The Watcher

She always leaned to watch for us
Anxious if we were late,
In winter by the window,
In summer by the gate.

And though we mocked her tenderly
Who had such foolish care,
The long way home would seem more safe,
Because she waited there.

Her thoughts were all so full of us
She never could forget,
And so I think that where she is
She must be waiting yet.

Waiting 'til we come home to her
Anxious if we are late
Watching from Heaven's window
Leaning from Heaven's gate.

          Mother's Love

Her love is like an island
In life's ocean, vast and wide.
A peaceful, quiet shelter
From the wind, the rain, the tide.
'Tis bound on the North by Hope,
By Patience on the West,
By tender Counsel on the South
And on the East by Rest.
Above it like a Beacon Light
Shine Faith, and Truth, and Prayer;
And thro' the changing scenes of life
I find a haven there.

My Mama
image She was the dearest sweetest mother anyone could have. She was my greatest treasure and my best and most faithful friend. There is no other love like a mother's love. The pain of loosing her and missing her is almost more than I can bare. This is what greif is. I will never be the same person that I was before I lost her. My only comfort is in knowing that she is with her Lord and that I will see her sweet face again one day.

My Mother.

I think of her now,
In that land of the blest;
At home with her saviour,
Forever at rest.

I think of her now,
As an angel of light;
Who beholds me at will,
Tho 'veiled from my sight

Now free is the spirit
That's soaring away;
Once bound to earth
In a prison of clay.

As she mingles in rapture
With the glorified throng;
Singing anthems of praise
As they're wafted along.
