For Mom EMPTY NEST After long day of work
She struggles to sit up in bed
Her tired eyes fight off sleep
Her small strong arms at her sides, with hands holding the holy book
Her lips, without a sound, say a prayer for her children who are not in the home but away
Her treasure is found in heaven
Where the greatest Prize awaits her As her unfocused eyes finally shut, her eyes are fully fixed on the Son
who promises heavenly rest
