Stay…
for a while
linger in the love
my precious son.
we bask together
in the goodness of God
all that has been in my life and all
that’s just begun with…you.
and you, your oh-so-new life
full of all the goodness yet to
come.
who am I to stay with you?
to be entrusted with the
sacred joy of being your mama?
So much love the world
around and I have you
to pour it upon.
Beloved in the Abba Father’s
eyes…
I look at you and my gaze
is stayed
upon a God who marvels.
I breathe in thanks and
breathe out prayers
for all that I don’t know
and for the heart
to trust all of your
tomorrows to Him. and
so then I may stay
stay and behold
stay and love
stay and enjoy
stay and embrace
stay and hold you oh-so-close
stay and kiss you tiny yet full
stay and look into the
depths of blue
to meet you and have
you meet me as
we increase this bond
begun some nine months
ago.
You in me formed
perfectly, knit together
fully and all the love
coming face-to-face
on Sweet Wednesday
in a new home
a home away from all I’ve
known and yet in you
in the love of a Mama
I am Home in Him.
Home to stay, to love
to pour of myself
a life offering to the
goodness and grace of God
for His indescribable gift.
