Healing Droplets

The pain is healing;
The love is flowing;
Once again between the kids and she;
The babies were born still not in whole;
But neither in the cold;
The pain is healing, healing, healing!

She watched them grow into the different stages;
Their precious minds trying to comprehend;
Of the life they experienced;
They needed the love and assurance of both parents;
But could not fathom why not?
It became a lot;
So they just closed up;
Into their world who cares a damn;
The pain is healing, healing, healing!

They chat yet not deep;
They smiled but not wholeheartedly;
The mother saw the emptiness in their eyes;
The distance so near yet so far;
To turn back the years and see them small once more;
To bond with them is what mothers are for;
To hug them tight and wipe away their tears;
To let them feel their mother’s strength;
The pain is healing, healing, healing!

As they grow older, they saw the world through the eyes of an adult;
Then they may have felt their mother’s struggle;
Then they may have felt how hard life is to juggle;
They took their education with much deliberation and;
Made their mother proud;
The pain is healing, healing, healing!

that is energy flowing in the right direction....the opposite energy ingrown goes bad and poisons every aspect of life. they are healing...and all is right with their world...

Hi C Lynn Brooks I have inserted the word she instead of her. Let me know if that is what you meant. Thank you for taking the time to read this piece, and for the compliment.

I will try hard not to impose my writing style on you. I will come back to this one in the near future. I see where it may be tightened up and the lines poked a bit. ~ Geezer.
