Mom I Will Miss You

When I was born you took me in your arms, wrap me in a blanket, took me home, and kept me from all harm. You shared with me so much love and kindness this is why I miss you mom. As I grew taller you kept me safe with your prayers from all danger and harm, this is why I miss you. As I became older when I was sad you would take me in your arms and rock me until I was glad, and my tears went away. When I became of age and ready to go out in the world to follow my dreams, you had already taught me right from wrong. This is why I will miss you mama. Now that I am grown, on my own and you have left to go home to be with Christ, mama I will miss you. Christ will keep you safe in his arms from all harm, but I still love and miss you mama.
