Just a poem I wrote for Mother's Day :)

The day had worn on me
Throwing mishap after mishap my way
And whenever I thought I was free
Disaster would make me its prey

When I returned home I could only fall to my knees
And to the lord I sent just a few simple pleas
I couldn't do this if I was alone
I wanted God to send me an angel all my own

Oh Lord, send me an angel
Who will wipe away all my tears
Send me an angel
Who will listen to all my cares

Please, Lord, I just need someone
To be there when everything is said and done
To wrap me in their arms
And protect me from all harms

Is it too much to request?
For you to send an angel down
I need to know I am blessed
Because right now I fear I shall drown

And then I let my words die
As I waited for His reply
And when it came
I would never think the same

How could I send you one? He asked.
How can one give what has already been given?
For you see, long in the past
I sent a very special angel from heaven

She was hand picked just for you
To be there during everything you go through
Whether it would fill you with glee
Or if it led you to curse Me

Where no other can find the right words
She will know just what to say to heal your heart
She will know which way to push you towards
When two choices tear you apart

When you cannot find where you belong
She will remind you you've had a home all along
And when you feel like the world is against you
Her unwavering love will prove that untrue

No matter the problem or fear
Nothing will make her stray
Because she will be right there
To her, there is no other way

You ask an angel from me
And I am so sorry that you didn't see
That she was there from the start
When you were first born and stole her heart

What you ask of me I cannot do
Because I have already sent an angel like no other
An angel specifically for you
Your angel is your mother
