Mother’s Garden

My Mother kept a garden,
a garden of the heart;
she planted all the good things
that gave my life it’s start.She turned me to the sunshine

always taught me right from wrong…
Markers for my pathway
that will last a lifetime long.I am my Mother’s garden
I am her legacy
and I hope today she feels the love
reflected back from me.

And He will raise you up on eagles’ wings Bear you on the breath of dawn Make you to shine like the sun And hold you in the palm of His hand.
