Heaven



I thought of you and closed my eyes and prayed to god today,

I asked what makes a mother and I know I heard him say.

a mother has a baby, this we know is true,

but god can you be a mother, when your baby's not with you?

yes, you can, he replied with confidence in his voice,

I give many women babies, when thy leave it's not their choice.

some I send for a lifetime and others for a day,

and some I send to feel the womb but there's no need to stay.

I just dont understand god I want my baby here!

he took a breath and cleared his throat and that I saw a tear.

I wish I could show you what your child is doing today,

if you could see your child smile with other children and say...

we go to earth to learn our lessons of love and life and fear,

my mummy loved me oh so much, I got to come right here.

I feel so lucky to have a mum who had so much love for me,

I learned my lesson very quickly, and my mummy set me free,

I miss my mummy oh so much but I visit her each day,

when she goes to sleep, on her pillow's where I lay.

I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek and whisper in her ear,

mummy dont be sad today, I'm your baby and i'm here.

so you see my dear sweet one your children are ok,

your babies are in my home and this is where they'll stay.

they'll wait for you with me until your lesson there is through,

and on the day that you come home, they'll be at the gates for you.

so now you see what makes a mother, it's the feeling in your heart,

it's the love you had so much of, right from the very start.

though some on earth my not realize until their time is done

remember all the love you have and know that you are a special mum!
