A mother's love for her baby son hasn't
any boundaries or limits
To hold that child close to your heart, to
help him to grow, steadying his legs as he
takes his first wobbly steps
To watch and revel in joy at the sound of
his laughter with each new toy
Holding his hand on the first day of school
telling him "nothing to fear...Mommy will
always be here."
Wiping his tears after a fall from a tree
Putting a kiss and a bandaid here and there.
The years go by as he grows ever taller
so straight full of life with no fear
The apron strings must be cut tis but
nature's way of moving on
Nearly a full grown man stands at the door
but in a mother's heart he is still the
little boy that she loves with all her might
The future is broken, promises unkept
tears flow like a river cascading forever
into the depths.
Sadness shakes us to our very core
The youth of our nation are expendable
once more.
A future once bright, shinning filled
with promise and belief
Lies broken at our feet
A Mother's love is forever and ever.....
This is dedicated to Debbi in memory of her son Travis....

This is very beautiful. I see that it was written or it was posted on the 24th of July. That's the day both my sons were almost taken from me. By the grace of God their lives were spared. My son came through his surgery fine. Sometimes we are brought to realization through things that we don't expect. I've learned never to take anything for granted. I wanted to tell you thankyou for visiting my journal and leaving those words to encourage me. I appreciate that... I like your poetic journal. It's unique. I will be back...
