A Hearts Prayer

They say an angle watches you and every step you take,
That no leap in unguarded even when mistakes are made.
  They’ll teach you of the world and all it has to give,
And just how your love could be such a precious gift.
  They’ll keep you close to their hearts even if you’re far away,
Just in case you stumble or even lose your way.
  They’ll guide you through your worries, fears and tears
While never let a nightmare creep anywhere near.

  For even when you’re older she’ll be right by your side,
To chase away the monsters and brighten up the night.
  To hold you close when you’re afraid and wipe away the tears,
She’ll lift you up and tight with strength then whisper” I’ll always be near”.

                             A blessing this angle was sent to you,
                            While watching every step you take.
                             She’ll be there to help guide you
                             No matter what mess you make.
                              I guess god knew what he was doing
                             When he sent this angle to you.

                              See, not only do you have a guardian,
                              But a mother whose love is true!

** I wrote this poem for my mom on mothers day'05, just 1 yrs before she passed away.
so i put this on here as a memory to her, and how much I'll always miss her.***
                                             !!! I LOVE YOU MOM !!!
