Look at how she looks at her,
Gazing into the love they created.
Arms outstretched, as they were,
Forever she would have waited.
To embrace the love of her child,
Completely; with mind, body, and soul.
The type of feeling that drives you wild,
God’s gracious goal.
After the delightfully solid embrace,
She closed her eyes and paused.
Recognizing the everlasting grace,
That this tenderness intently caused.
This is the pure love they have for one another.
Blessed is the child to have such a mother.

Who is the mother?
I think too, that in that love that perfect moment she was having. She would have caught her stood up, tilted her head listening and watching. Then after that gorgeous child went to bed, she would have sat and stared at the wall or out a window and wondered about the rest of her life.
I would like to see that picture as well….
