mothers ~ our angels on earth

~*~


Once upon a time 

there was a child ready to be born

The child asked God,


they tell me


you are sending me


to earth tomorrow,


but how am I going to live there


being so small and helpless?

God replied,

among the angels, 

I chose one for you


your angel will be waiting for you 


and will take care of you

The child further inquired, 

but tell me, here in heaven ... 

I don't have to do anything 

but sing and smile and be happy

God said, 

your angel will sing for you 

smile for you every day

you will feel your angel's love 

and be very happy

Again the child asked,

and how am I going 

to be able to understand 

when people talk to me, 

if I don't know the language?

God said, 

your angel will tell you 

the most beautiful & sweet words


you will ever hear, 

and with much patience and care,


your angel will teach you how to speak

and what am I going to do 

when I want to talk to you?

God said,

your angel will place 

your hands together

and will teach you how to pray

I've heard that on earth


there are bad men ...

who will protect me?

God said, 

your angel will defend you 

even if it means risking it's life

but I will always be sad 

because I will not see you anymore

God said,

your angel will always talk 

\
to you about me 

and will teach you the way 


come back to me 

even though, I will always 


be next to you

at that moment


there was much peace in heaven,


but voices from Earth could be heard 


and the child hurriedly asked,

God, if I am to leave now, 


please tell me my angel's name

*

her name is not important ... 

you will simply call her 

Momma
