Proud, Sad, but Trusting
Published on January 16, 2005 By oleteach In Personal Relationships
When Greywar was just a little lad of only a few years,
I knew that he was destined to bring me a few tears.
But there were more surprises, dreams and joys so pure
Than I could ever envision as he grew up fast and sure.

He married when he was yet too young and somewhat immature.
He thought for sure their marriage would prosper and endure.
A little child came with her bright smile and such delightful charm.
Xtine and Greywar would protect her from every hurt and harm.

Still they could not stay together and be happy being one,
They went their separate ways; yet all their efforts were not undone.
Forever friends they will be, united by this wondrous child,
Who has looked up to them and with her ways beguiled.

Now this daddy has gone to war so that she will always be free.
He wants all children of this world to jump and dance with glee.
He will come back home when his tour is finally ended
And be whole and happy that this world will be a bit more mended.

So this mama is here praying for all those sons and daughters dear,
Proud, and sad but trusting that they will not live in fear
But will seek a loving God who will look into their hearts
And grant them all the blessings that His graciousness imparts.

Amen!
