INTRO: My dad remarried at 75 years of age, a few years after my mother’s death, which followed a lifetime of caring for my mentally ill mum. My step-mum is such a blessing so late in my dad’s life. Dad is now 90 years old and still happily married to my step-mum. It’s never too late in life to thrive. God’s blessings are not bound by time.
I wrote this poem at midnight on Mother’s Day 2021. Beverley Joy.
A card is inadequate to express
The value of your life to us
The loyalty and care you possess
For dad and my family.
A gift is too inexpensive
To show the quality, so priceless
Of your faithfulness
Toward dad and my family.
I thank God every day
For gifting you to my family
A Desert Rose
A Lotus flower
A Lilley of the Valley
