A Mothers Prayer

My daily blessing is that your fed
                                                 
                      physically, emotionally, spiritually
                                                 
A clean place to lie your weary head
                                                 
                       soft, warm, sheltered from storm
                                                 
  Gently tucked in a familiar bed
                                                 
                      an arm to hold you near
                                                 
Robust Laughter blossoming life is led
                                                 
                      friends, picnics, nature
                                                 
Sacred connection to you is wed
                                                 
                      health, prosperity, God's favor
                                                 
Judgement cast lightly for mistakes said
                                                 
                      forgiveness, perseverance, grace
                                                 
Abundance sent from our daily bread
                                                 
                      inspiring job, enough for bills, confidence
                                                 
Caring loving words, to you, are said
                                                 
                     spared vindictive hate, berate, condemnation
                                                 
Love walks with you till the day your dead
                                                 
                      arise in glory from your story
