Orbit of My Heart
Delivered from my Mother's womb,
Placed into her strong arms,
For sweet and loving care,
From my birth until her tomb.
Touched by my special Angel,
Mother with toil worn hands,
Held against her soft breast,
Speaking with quite demands.
Flavored kisses from her lips,
Tasty as the sweetest wine,
Her breath delightfully warm,
Mother of mine so devine.
I grieve death, sweet proctector,
Through days and heavenly stars,
Yet I know you abide near me,
Within the orbit of my heart's desires.
