A Mothers' Day Thought

All of us have mothers (Be they living or deceased), But only some of us have kids (Or grands, to say the least). So Mothers’ Day is tricky – There are highs and there are lows. We might be thrilled or disappointed – That’s the way it goes. Today, for me, was wonderful, Despite a touchy start. An afternoon with family Was soothing to my heart. A little lunch, a sweet bouquet And lovely chocolate cake, Plus a special trombone concert Such a perfect day did make. I don’t need fancy keepsakes To remind me I’ve a place In the hearts of those I love, A Mothers’ Day thought to embrace.
