She Patiently Awaits...
SHE PATIENTLY AWAITS...
In memory of the teen Amber Dubois and
by Donna Newton 2010
C linging to the special memories as
if silently creating a shrine,
Adding to them many more that at
the time was just simply life
I t is belief that you are in a better
place because where you
are is in God's loving grace,
and even though we believe
this too, Evil still got through
our protecting you
M y soul is hollow, cold with grief
I am consumed by the tears
that run rivers deep, and while
guilt fights to thaw this
overwhelming grief,
my parental obligation
is not yet complete,
as my surviving children
need a mom to be here
for them until they
too move on
S o it is here and now Lord
I call upon my faith
as the pain has made me weak...
dear heavenly father please
grant me strength to continue
life's journey now without
my angel's face
I ask of you Father please
keep a close watch as my
baby is now alone..
And however long it takes
she will patiently wait
to be reunited with mommy
As we walk through your
heavenly gates
