My One Big Love

~You are my heart you are my soul

the essence of my life~

~You are the part that makes me whole

my every reason why~

~You own my thoughts the all of day

and rule my dreams of night~

~And when I kneel to God I pray

to keep you in his sight~

~You are the flame that lights my life

and guides me in the dark~

~When I am wrong you show me right

always with regard~

~When I am sad you bring me joy

laughter takes it’s place~

~When I am angry and annoyed

you put a smile on my face~

~When I am ill you make me well

taking little sleep~

~Within your soul an Angel dwells

watching over me~

~You are my one my all my everything

no more could I want of~

~I need you more than anything

you are my one big love~

Hope

 

Hope is defined as a desire of good,

such as the future born in Motherhood!

The newborn child the future will make,

changing things for man’s sake!

Expectations of things are thought,

and money so they can be bought!

A prayer for a loved one to be safe,

and to help you keep the faith!

Giving to those of the needy,

and knowing your children aren’t greedy!

Receiving your very first kiss,

and for more you give a wish!

Watching a young couple in love,

and wishing them the best all of!

When a war finally comes to an end,

no more reason for our sons to send!

A catastrophe in a foreign land,

the whole worlds lends a hand!

But the greatest hope on earth,

was that of our Savior’s birth! 

All of these are hopes to be,

and too reside in me!
