A Mother’s wish in having hope
She is Catholic and relishes the Pope
A Mother’s son is based in the U.S. Army overseas
She would feel better if her Son was at home
The Mother feels so alone
Her Husband passed several years ago
But for years she would let go
The Mother often writes letters too her Son
She would feel better if she could talk face to face and he was among
The Mother prays asking God to protect her Son and keep him alive
But you should be feeling a Mother’s vibe
Now the Mother often makes a wish
Then throws in the air a kiss
Be careful what you wish for as it might come true
But there is nothing here to pursue
Suddenly there was a knock at the door
But the Mother didn’t seem sure
Could it be bad news that her Son had died?
How would she take the news?
Are you sure you want to answer the door?
Could it really be a surprise?
As the Mother opened the door, Sargent John Harrison, the Mother’s Son was behind the door
Her heart was full of joy extending into galore
Embraces upon embraces full of happiness
Captivated in life being her own witness
There were tears of joy both ends
But a salute in honor
A Mother’s love illustrating Welcome Home Son
Total admiration among
It’s a happy ending done.
