My Child Dear



I have no gold or riches untold, nor
  have I properties for you to behold
What I have you cannot see, its an
  emotion that ties thee to me.
From Mother to Child its handed
  down, a feeling to guide, to protect,
  and to Love without bounds.
If seeing is believing then look around
  I am always here, where I can be found
Throughout life strife shall appear, and
  it even happened to us right here.
Forget disparages incurred before, also
  let us never keep any scores.
Never doubt what I say to you now, for
  it is a fact I am emitting out.
Momma Loves you now and forever my
  Dear, so never quake in with any fear.
Even in death I will be around, because
  you are my heart and my soul set
  within Times gears and wound.
