A Mother's Heart

I recieved this poem from a dear friend after the dealth of my sweet Joshua. 

A Mother's Heart
A mother sheds a silent tear for her precious son.
She bows her head in quiet prayer Thy will, not mine be done.

Her little child a perfect soul left God's Heavenly Throne.
He came to earth but could not stay His Father called him home.

His time was short, his mission done. He came and left his love
Footprints in her heart he placed. In peace he dwells above.

With empty arms, and tender heart she walks with faith, not fear.
She feels God's love surrounding her and knows He's always near.

Wrapped in the cloak of Heavenly Peace the comfprter provides,
She finds the strength to carry on, God's angels by her side.

Again she sheds a silent tear for her Angel Son,
Then bows her head and humbly prays, Thy will Dear God be done.
Marilyn Linford, 2009
