Amen to Life

                 ..AMEN TO LIFE..


I LIVED , I LOVED , I LAUGHED ,I CRIED. 
                     I WASNT THE BEST MOTHER, 
                             BUT GOD KNOWS, I TRIED. 
IF I HAD A CHANCE, TO LIVE ONCE MORE. 
I WOULD LIVE IT DIFFERENT THAN BEFORE. 
          
I WOULD STILL HAVE MY CHILDREN ,KISS AWAY THEIR TEARS. 
LISTEN TO THEM, LOVE THEM, CHASE AWAY THEIR FEARS.  
   
         SEND THEM TO SCHOOL WITH LOTS OF HUGS. 
             MAKE SURE THEY STAY, AWAY FROM DRUGS.  
 IF THERES LIFE AFTER DEATH,THEN WHEN I GO TO HEAVEN. 
 I WILL SURELY BE WATCHING , OVER MY SEVEN. 

 I WOULD LOVE AND GUIDE THEM, FROM UP ABOVE,  
 WITH AN ETHEREAL MOTHERS LOVE. 
 
  WITH ME UP ABOVE AND GOD BY MY SIDE. 
  WE WOULD RAISE MY SEVEN, DRUG FREE AND WITH PRIDE. 

   THE YEARS HAVE GONE  AND LIFES PASSED ME BY,  
           BUT I HAVN'T LIVED YET, 
                         I DONT WANT TO DIE. 
    BUT IF ITS GODS WILL,AND HE SAYS I MUST. 
     THEN MY LIFES IN GODS HANDS,
                         IN GOD WE TRUST...

Reason for writing:

    
I love writing poems.  I usually write them when I am feeling sad..It is something that I have done all my life.I am a mother of seven children and there is always something to write about . I have written a poem about all of them..
