But For Now

I watch you lovingly
I love you with all my heart
You are my provider and comforter
This I will never forget
Your beads of sweat
And rainfall of tears
I will catch in my hand
And return them to the realms of hope
But for now
You are my soother
Tending to me in my time of hurt
Your heartbeat is the medicine I need
To cure whatever ails me
When terror invades my dreams
You deliver me to reality
By cradling my head in your arms
Slowly returning me to my slumber
With your sweet songs of serenity
I wish I could tell you how I feel
And one day I will
But for now
I can show you with my touch
Pray you see it in my eyes
Hope you hear it in my laughter
I thank God for making me yours
I am your child
You are my mother
I will love you always

Marcel

Write from the soul and the words will flow

Wow!  If you intended to turn us all into weeping piles of mush, you have succeeded.  I was so caught by the meaning that I have not given much thought to providing you a critique (which I notice you love and I would normally be happy to provide as I also enjoy a constructive critique).  That must mean something in itself?  hmmmmmm...

I will look forward to reading more of your posts!

I can speak as a mother, that this poem would be a priceless gift to give to your mother.
Please share it with her, it's simply beautiful.

Hugs,
Deb
