~*~Love To My Other Mother~*~
~My Hubby and His Mom with Sis' Dog Ariel~
For years you have been my other mother
Although none could ever replace my other
I thank-you for birthing your Son for me
For all you've done that's made me so happy
You brought to my heart the love of birds
Being God's precious winged creatures on earth
You planted a single Iris bulb to bloom
Now a multitude covers my outdoor room
You planted a rose of sharon many years ago
Now throughout my property many now grow
You shared many of plants from the old homestead
That I planted with love by the fences and flowerbeds
I guess the greatest one was just a seedling
A lovely Mimosa tree from your grandpa's property
It is in the center of my yard at the end of my pond
Last year it even had blooms and I cherished every one
All this beauty came from God's seed
Yet it was you that shared so many with me
I love the mimosa and his name is now Moses
He stands mightily overlooking flowers and roses
You live in Florida and rarely get to see
All the beauty you have shared with me
But this year you came and were intrigued
Giving a compliment of all the beauty you seen
So in this poem I wanted to give honor to you
For the gift of your Son and all the seeds too
I think of you often and the times we have shared
I love you Mom and with gratitude ,
you are forever in my prayers
You are a strong woman that presses on
Not being idle for there's things to be done
You passed this legacy down to your children
As you are still working at age seventy seven
May God watch over you and help you through
All the trials in the physical that has come on you
You have a strong will and it is your legacy
This is a quality that all who meet you does see
God bless you Mom and give you continued strength
All the days of your life with courage and long length
It is truly God's hand that guides you through
For there's no other explanation to do what you do
Just know you are loved and we honor you
For sharing and caring and all that you do
May you always be safe and in God's will
For Jesus sends ministering angels to you still

If I recall this is a song you always loved; "Child Of the King"
Eph.3:17-19
17.That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith;
that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,
18.May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth,
and length, and depth, and height;
19.And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge,
that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.
