Oh Joy

Oh joy
A hug from my boy
Arm's entwined around me
In a circle of love.

It's a mother's biggest joy, especially when it hasn't happened for quite some time. My prayers have been answered.

I can't tell you the joy I felt, he left home about 6 years ago and things have been strained since. I've been praying I'd one day get my son back. His hugs and kisses made my Christmas. Thank you for commenting as always Kim x
