Within my album of memories I can always find

My precious little mamas walking through my mind

Because they were my friends from the very start

Their pictures always hang upon the walls of my heart

A wall of greatest honor for each has earned her place

By being such sweet ladies full of love and Godly grace

I see their smiles as they lit up my world of gloom

Giving me the ‘just right’ Word causing hope to bloom

Encouraging and sustaining with little bits of cheer

Helping to chase away that beguiling enemy I call ‘fear’

I know I would not be here-today-if it had not been

For their fervent prayers sent to God, now and back ‘when’

So if you will allow me I will honor each dear one today

First, “Thank You, God for bringing them into my heart this way.”

“Thank you” my sweet little mamas for always taking the time

To fill the empty void left-after Heaven became home to mine.”
