Analysis of My Mother
Brandy Wells 1977 (Arkansas)
Good morning dear Lord. Such a beautiful morning thank you for another day.I need to talk with you please.I'm scared and my heart it's very heavy. My mom, she's so tired she hurts so bad.Can you lay your hands on her, watch over her, so she’ll not be in so much pain. Bring her comfort, and piece. Not only is she the greatest mother,She’s my best friend. She's so heartbroken so empty. She'll say I'm okay, she's really not. For us girls we can see what’s going on.Lord when I ask of these things,please please, don’t take her away from me. See I can’t live without her down here with me, I’d never be able to breathe. Amen

My mother isn’t just my mother, she’s also my very best friend, she’s my light. Her health isn’t real great.So I pray.
