Mother Of Sadness

 Mother Of Sadness

By Paul McCann

Mother of sadness

You know the feeling

of seeing someone you love

being punished .

Mother of sadness

Ask you son to fill the spaces when I feel      

Empty and unreached   .

Mother of sadness 

You know the loneliness of silence

And the hurt that dwells inside .

Mother of sadness

Help me to close my eyes

and bury the feelings that I can’t hide .

  Mother of sadness 

Even though you suffered in silence 

You were able to forgive .

Mother of sadness 

Help me to carry on and to love again .

and help me to live . 

Mother Of Prayer

Mother Of Prayer

By Paul McCann

Mother of prayer  

when I pray to you

I call you Mother .

Mother of prayer

In silence I pray .

Mother hear my prayer .  

Mother of prayer

Help me to focus

and to be aware ,

Mother of prayer  

Keep my footsteps free

From the evil snare .

Mother of prayer  

Be with me in

Every endeavour .

Mother of prayer  

I place my petitions

into you care ,

Mother of prayer  

You know everything

that is unfair .

Mother of prayer  

Thank you for always

showing me you care .
