Lora Lee
|
There was a child, God gave to me |
|
Her name was Lora, yes Lora Lee |
|
When she was a baby, what joy she did bring |
|
more than an emerald or diamond ring, |
|
When she was a toddler, she began to cut up, |
|
She hit her sister with a coffee cup! |
|
When off to school she went with tears, |
|
Valerie was there to take away her fears, |
|
Then she got a brand new Dad, |
|
and that made her extremely glad! |
|
They took to each other, right from the start, |
|
and that brought joy to my motherly heart. |
|
As she grew older, the boys came along, |
|
and Lora was always singing a song. |
|
Of course we had strife, |
|
All parents do, |
|
but thats part of life |
|
I'm telling you. |
|
When Lora at last, into womanhood grew, |
|
She put her life on hold for family, t'is true. |
|
There was illness, and death, and illness again |
|
and finally it all came to and end. |
|
Lora again went off to school. |
|
A job Lora now needed to pursue. |
|
Nursing was the way she'd go, |
|
That profession is stable, |
|
Don't you know? |
|
After three long years she got her degree, |
|
and then she bought a house for me! |
|
I don't know why God chose me, |
|
to be the Mother of Lora Lee? |
|
She's one in a million, that child of mine, |
|
and for that I thank God Divine. |
|
He sent me an angel from up above, |
|
also a best friend for me to love. |
|

Happy Birthday Baby |
