Poetry: A mother's prayer

I pray
For...
My children
To know
The Lord
I ask him
To give you
Both the
Strength
To endure
What will come



I pray
The Lord
Allows...
Your lives
To be full
And long...
So you can see
The seeds
You've planted
And watch
Your own
Children's
Children
Grow

I pray
You each
Keep
Your minds
Open and
Hearts warm

Remember...
Forgiveness
Alwa ys use it
Towards each
Other and
For yourself
Wherefore,do not
Forget...
Humanity needs
Forgiveness
Too



I pray...
My sweet children
Set aside hate
Stand up
For what's right
Just do not
Go with the flow
You must think
For yourselves

I pray
Everything
You give...
You give
Your all
And live
A life
You can
Deal with

For there will
Be a day I
Can no longer
Protect you
When you're
On your own
I pray to God
With all my heart
That what I've taught
Takes you both
Far in life
Hoping one day
You'll pass it on
