Beautiful * Sunrise * Sunset - 05.29.11

A beautiful sunset before me
I watch as my childhood ends
A beautiful sunrise imploring
I watch as my simple path bends
An idea, a maybe, a plea
I take my idea to Thee
A baby, dear Lord send me
In thy time, not mine, before me

Never a mother before wanting
Only a husband, my love, my something
But now I feel a small stirring
A motherly nature of nurturing

A beautiful sunset before me
I watch as my childhood ends
A beautiful sunrise imploring
I watch as my simple path bends
