Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to moms everywhere!

Here's a Mother's Day Gift from poet Kay McCarthy Reall. Kay writes our new inspirational "Angel Whispers" (You can read one of Kay's "whispers" in our spring newsletter - click on the heading of this post and it will take you back to the newsletter page of our web site).


A Mother's Memories
by
Kay McCarthy Reall
 
 
A mother's heart holds memories
Of days that flew too fast;
Of babies cradled in her arms,
A joy she knows won't last.
 
The memories of a little child,
She proudly watched him grow;
Then memories of a young adult.
Oh, where did those years go?
 
A grandma's heart holds memories
Of a tiny precious life;
A warm and special gift from God
To her son and his wife.
 
A baby who is like a bud,
Who soon becomes  a rose;
A grandma's thankful for the time
To watch him as he grows.
 
A great-grandma has memories,
As she holds a baby boy;
And like the other newborns,
He becomes her pride and joy.
 
A son, grandson, great-grandson,
They each make up a part
Of the happy, loving memories
Within...a mother's heart.
