My child is grown Married with children of her own Life a twist of fate Divorce, judgements ,learn to hate Before God They came together She left him, a battle, a storm unable to weather They both moved on and found new love Was it a gift from above Turn about is fair play He with the new life ,wife is happy today She broken hearted dazed puzzled looked but did not blink Tears falling ,she spoke quietly Karma at play ,I think New love burns bright, then fades for all to see The way things are ,not as they should be She believes this is her punishment for wrongs of the past Devil laughing in delight she must pay her dues at last It’s hard to see your child broken hearted Knowing there is nothing I can do when two have parted A mother’s job is to listen not reply In a broken heart many bombs lie Hour spent rehashing the chain of events The things said at each other exspence I know in time this too will fade If I could save her from the pain I would make the trade So for now all I can do is be there for my child cautiously watch what I say or Her words are not meek or mild Why is it we take out our hurt on the ones we love Wasnt that the first lesson we failed with God above Hope faith and love The most important of these Is love (Bible)

Pains of a mother
My child is grown Married with children of her own Life a twist of fate Divorce, judgements ,learn to hate Before God They came together She left him, a battle, a storm unable to weather They both moved on and found new love Was it a gift from above Turn about is fair play He with the new life ,wife is happy today She broken hearted dazed puzzled looked but did not blink Tears falling ,she spoke quietly Karma at play ,I think New love burns bright, then fades for all to see The way things are ,not as they should be She believes this is her punishment for wrongs of the past Devil laughing in delight she must pay her dues at last It’s hard to see your child broken hearted Knowing there is nothing I can do when two have parted A mother’s job is to listen not reply In a broken heart many bombs lie Hour spent rehashing the chain of events The things said at each other exspence I know in time this too will fade If I could save her from the pain I would make the trade So for now all I can do is be there for my child cautiously watch what I say or Her words are not meek or mild Why is it we take out our hurt on the ones we love Wasnt that the first lesson we failed with God above Hope faith and love The most important of these Is love (Bible)
My daughter had a fight argument with her boyfriend of two years she is distraught calling me all day long I am happy to be there although I can’t do or say anything right But mother’s never stop being a mother no matter the age it’s just a little more difficult to Council an adult
