She is There

She is There

Heavenly Mother
She is there.
My Mother
Not on the side lines
Not absent
Not behind the scenes

She is there.
Mothering
Nurturing
Involved
At His Side

His Help meet
United as one
Neither without the other
My Father and My Mother

They
Them
Heavenly Parents
Love me

They created me
Created in Her image
To become like Her
To become like Them

Remembering my Mother
No longer absent from my thoughts
To become I must see Her
To become I must know Her
I must know Them

I am a child of God
God the Father
And God the Mother
I am Their child

She
She is there.
She is here.
My Heavenly Mother
I feel her near.
