A Mothers Love

Her lullaby she sang so sweet, While kissing her babies toes and feet. Momma loves you she would coo as she rocked, This tiny gift from God she still was amazed and shocked. Such a perfect creation and it came from her, She prayed to be the best mother that there ever were. It was so tiny and fragile and she felt so alone, But it was also the greatest thing she had ever known. She had created life the most amazing gift of all, As she caressed it to her bosom all rolled up in such a small and tiny little ball. The child was asleep and she hated to lay it down, As she released its little fingers that were clinging to her gown. Goodnight my precious child as she gently laid it in its bed, Momma loves you and she gently caressed the baby’s head. Sleep tight and she asked God to watch over her precious child with all his might. What she didn’t see were the guardian angels God had already sent that very night.
