A poem for Mandy

[calluna]

This is for you Mandy. I know I am not your mom, but I am one
and I would want you to tell me.


If You Were My Daughter

If you were my daughter
and could sense the pain you're in
I would say come here my child
Let's talk a while, I'll begin...

I love you my daughter
I can see that you are sad
What is ailing you my dear?
It can't be all that bad.

Just tell me , it will be o.k
Please do not have any fear
God says 'do not be afraid'
He is always near

God gives you courage
You finally speak the words
"I am pregnant mom, please help me"
You sob the pent up tears

Oh my daughter, sweetheart
It's true, this is a shock to me
I maybe a little sad
and even angry

But God's Grace is sufficient
He'll help you through this trial
In fact we'll face it together
You'll have this precious child

You will hold your head up high
You are a beautiful daughter of God
Others have gone before you
This path they've also trod

But sadly they have chosen
a harder road to follow
To take the life of a child
and did not think of tomorrow

It may seem a 'cool solution'
Get rid of a 'problem' temporary
But they don't know the anguish
and the pain of that memory

This baby will be a blessing
Somehow God will make it to be
God Almighty turns bad to good
A victory, you'll see

Even if you think still
that mom and dad would abandon you
You'll never be alone
God will never forsake you

He will protect you and your baby
You will be under His mighty wing
Have this child my daughter
Make the angels sing


I am praying for you Mandy
love calluna

Even though I wrote this for Mandy and we sadly know the outcome.

Today I realized that this poem can be given to any young girl who is in the same situation. Maybe you are a teen friend of a pregnant friend and you don't know how to encourage them to tell their mom or you are Christian counsellor who work with pregnant teens. Maybe the Lord can use this poem to speak to a scared and hurting heart.
