Not All Angels Know How To Fly

Some angels fly on wispy wings
And play on sunlit clouds
Some angels soar in skies of blue
High above earth's crowds

Some angels glide on gusts of wind
Between the snow capped mountains
Some have their image cast in stone
Adorning concrete fountains

Some angels sport halos of gold
But yet, there are some others
Not blessed with wings, halos, or flight
God simply made them mothers


Happy Mother's Day To All Passion's Moms....a hug from me to you




~ Ruth

And a great big Mother's Day
from me to you Ruth.  I sure miss you!

We should spend less time worrying about when our life is going to end and more on when it's going to start!
