Blue Star Mothers Poem by mary catherine

Mom sits alone
Night after night
Worrying about me
In the dim of the light
Wondering if............
Once again she will see
Her baby, her youngest
Her heart string from thee
Praying each and every night
That i'm okay
I'm gonna be alright
In God's hands
She lays her worry
She trusts in him
He's strong and sturdy
With each day that passes by
Some of them I know mom cries
Tears of joy and tears of pain
Moms hard work didnt go in vain
That little boy that you once knew
Is now a man, Tried and True
I'm the person I'am today I know
From your strength, your pain
Your unending goals
You may sit alone
Sometimes at night
But the Pride for me
Its shining so bright
Like a long lost beackon
You find in the night
My Blue Star Mother
Your the reason i fight

Dedicated to: Ms. Mary Ruth and All those single mom's who put there heart and soul into their little men...who we now know as 'our brave soldiers'..
