Your Angel Be

Your Angel Be

A Poem by Siddartha Beth Pierce

A true delight you have become

my one and only loving son

the years have passed so quickly

I nearly did not see

From infant to young adulthood

you are bound

It travels by with delightful sounds

of laughter, tantrums and questions galore

about things such as 'What are we here for?'

 

You are a God send to me

without you I would not be

the Mother I have become

loving Unconditionally her only son.

 

While you grow I am surprised

how time has passed so fervently

when once upon a time I nursed you

to give you sustenance

now your favorite undertaking

is playing with your friends.

 

From infancy, you were mine

my offspring, so Divine

now as you've grown

I see myself in the glint in your eye

that causes mischief

so often, no matter to me

as long as I see you growing healthily

In heart, mind and soul

you are a true beauty

without you where would I be.

 

You give me purpose

a love beyond measure

your smile, your giggle, your games

bring me pleasure

as you proudly wear my name

My son, I love you

forever more

unto death's door

from there my love will follow thee

in heaven, I will your

Angel Be.

This is the man in your life...he will take care of you and he will always love you even during hard times when you think that love you have has gone. It has not left. He is your son, your are his Mother and you both will always love each other like the warmth of a glove fitted around your hands.

Absolutely wonderful! There is no Love surpasses a Mothers Love. This is especially potent for me as I miss a young son who stepped on a rainbow recently. I feel these words to my soul. ;~D

This is such a beautiful write about a much loved son, who has bought such wonder and joy, watching
him grow year by year.........your pride shows throughout, and the wonder at being blessed, being
a mother............this was just beautiful.
