Stories and Poems for a Mother’s Heart (including picture poem “Within These Walls”)

Heart Tears — While I was yet . . . kicking and screaming, You cared for me.

 Awaiting Birth – Standing there in her blue cotton dress, she blew on the stem…

 Faith Takes One – Faith takes one step into the cold raging water…

 Seeking the Joy Giver – Am I only seeking a child to hold … or the Father who holds me? …

Song of the Tree — I am a tree planted by the riverside…not a weeping willow…

Grains of Sand — The Hourglass was set in place. Time began and here I am…

I Felt You Today (poem especially for a mom with babies and toddlers)
