A Mother's Prayer






 
Give me patience when little hands tug at me

with ceaseless small demands.

Give me gentle words and smiling eyes

and keep my lips from hasty sharp replies.

Let me not in weariness,

confusion or noise obscure my vision

from life's fleeting joys.

That when in years to come my house is still,

Beautiful memories it's rooms may fill.
