Lucilla Carrilo

I chose poet Lucilla Carrilo and her poem "The Garden Of JESUS." 
A mother's love cannot be matched. 


"The Garden Of JESUS"

The Garden Of JESUS
Jesus has a garden, a beautiful site to see.
One that is breath taking, for anyone that
goes there will sure agree with me. In His
garden He has only the best flowers that
anyone could ever see.
He came to Earth one day. A special flower
He was looking for. 
He went to many places
looking for that special one, Than He saw my
mother and said - she is the one that I'm
waiting for.
He closed her eyes and told her, I am taking
you home, so my garden you can adorn. As we
saw her leave with Him - we couldn't help but
cry, but we also felt some joy as we saw her
by His side.
Mother we will miss you, but we know where you
are at. You are at a very special place - where they
only take the best. The Angels are very happy, they
are going to celebrate, they heard that you were coming
and a banquet they prepared, for you my dear mother,
because you are now one of the best....
