Mommy

Author : Unknown It's long, but it's really good if you have the will to read it all the way through

As I walked through the park one day,

I stopped to hear a little girl say,

"Dear God, I want to see you today,

I want you to hear me pray."

My curiosity led me closer to this girl,

As if we were the only two in this world.

She said, "God pray for mommy, she is ill,

and let her know I love her still."

I could see the tears stream down her face

As she stood alone in this empty place.

"Please send an angel for my mother

just like you did for my brother."

When I heard what she was saying

I knelt down with her as she was praying.

"I promise to be good and true,

if you promise to take my mommy with you."

All I could do was weep and cry,

Then got up and dried my eyes.

I said, "God has sent me from up above,

He sends to you all His love."

The little girl looked at me for a while

Then she stood up with a smile.

"Are you the angel that was promised to me,

who will promise to care for my mommy?"

I could see this little girl was relieved

She knew God sent me because she believed.

"It's time to take mommy to your brother,

he says he loves you and misses your mother."

As I turned and started walking away

I heard a man sobbing as he came this way.

"Hi, baby. I'm so sorry, mommy has died.

I can't believe it, I don't know why."

The little girl took daddy's hand and guided the way

Then she looked at him in the eye to say,

"Daddy, don't cry, God promised it would be okay.

Mommy will be happy, and we'll see her again one day."
