I think maybe you told your mother she was beloved, when you came on DU to ask for prayers. Im so sorry for your loss.
*********************************************
Are you afraid
However could you not be
In this rosy light
This is strange
I feel a hand come through the mirror
Pointing at the light
Point at the light we never see
As you put your feathered arms over me
Before you leave
You must know you are beloved
And before you leave
Remember I was with you
And as you leave
I won't hold you back beloved
