Premium Member Her Arms

Her eyes have a loving glow to them…her smile a certain charm
but the best place to feel her love is inside our mother’s arms.

From the first time we step into them they fit around us like a glove
providing us with all we need…
when all we need…
is love

And showing us, as we grow older, 
anytime 
and anywhere
when we step back into our mother’s arms...
we’ll find some comfort there.

One day we’ll return the favor.
We’ll know when…and where
when she steps into our open arms and finds some comfort there.

And she will feel in that moment
how our arms fit around her like a glove
providing her with all she needs
when all she needs…
is love.

And when she’s no longer with us
when we close our eyes we'll find…
we still can feel that warm embrace…
her arms have left behind.

Premium Member A Mother's Worth

Who can tell a mother’s worth?
Who knows the wealth of such?
What do children know from birth?
Their mother’s blessed touch.

Who can tell a mother’s worth?
Who knows the gains thereof?
What exceeds the wealth of earth
Like mother’s boundless love?

Who can tell a mother’s worth?
Who can count her gifts?
What on earth brings greater mirth
Than mother’s tender kiss?

Who can tell a mother’s worth?
Who gives her ample praise?
What gift can any give on earth
That begins to show “repaid”?

Who can tell a mother’s worth?
All of heaven knows and sees…
The height, and depth and girth,
Of the love He has for these.

Premium Member MOM MA

In the morning light, with a love so warm,  

You were there to guide, through each raging storm.  

Through laughter and tears, your embrace so true,  

Oh, Mom, this song's for you. 


You're the melody in the song of my life,  

A beacon of love in moments of strife.  

With grace and strength, you carried me through,  

This tribute, dear Mom, is my love for you. 

 
In the quiet moments, and the chaos too,  

Your love, a constant, like the morning dew.  

You taught me to stand, you taught me to soar,  

In your arms, I found my forever shore. 


Through lullabies and bedtime tales,  

Through scraped knees and fairy tales.  

You were there in every step I took,  

In your love, Mom, my heart found its nook. 

 
A whisper of wisdom in every word you say,  

In your warmth, I find my safest bay.  

You're my teacher, my hero, my guiding light,  

In your love, Mom, everything's so bright. 

 
So here's to you, Mom, with a heart so pure,  

In every note, my gratitude, I assure.  

Through this song, let my love shine through,  

Forever grateful, forever for you.

An Ode To the Magnificent Mother

By: Sashi.Prabhu (zeauoxian)
 Mother's Day is a celebration honoring mothers and celebrating motherhood, maternal bonds and the influence of mothers in society.

The moon, the stars, the sunny skies, so beautiful they seem,
All mankind can sense and appreciate what it means,
Their beauty and the beauty of others,
Are in no way a comparison to our mothers.

Mothers are God’s gift to us,
Least appreciated and most worked without a fuss.
Mothers are there to help teach and guide,
And through thick and thin stay by your side.

Mother loves us right from the start,
From the moments she fondly holds us close to her heart.
These moments forever seem to her like only yesterday,
But we all know they were a few eons away.

Mother is there right through our troubles, conflicts and strife,
And every endeavor she undertakes to keep us afloat through pains of life.
Any time in life we can rely on her strong helping hand,
And she is there for you till you have regained the strength, alone to stand.


Mother is one we can lean on,
As deep in her heart she is very strong.
At times it is only mother who can soothe our running tears,
And calm our mind’s lurking shadows of fears.

Mother filled our days with multihued lights,
And put us to bed with lullaby and sweet dreams nights.
And on a foreign land you gave life to me,
And when I was old enough to my wife you set me free.

Whenever I needed you were there with tender care,
For advice and support you were always there.
You taught me right from wrong,
And how to the world whistle my own song.

Mother, I wonder if I could give a diamond to you,
For every tear you shed for me without much ado.
Mother, I wonder if you could accept an emerald from me,
For each truth you made me realize and see.

Mother, I wonder if I could give a ruby to you,
For every midnight coffee you did brew.
Mother, I wonder if I could give a pearl to you,
For every lesson of wisdom you have given me anew.


But I don’t have these and this you are aware,
And all I can offer you is my love devotion and care.
You are so dear to me but yet it took me so long to say,
Have a “HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY”.

I know that when you think of me,
A part of you in me you will always see.
Thank you and I Love you Mom,
This is me your first born son

The Icer

I needed a cake for a birthday;
I stopped at a fancy food store.
With Mothers’ Day coming tomorrow,
I lucked out with choices galore.

My daughter loves everything chocolate
And one seemed to really just pop –
A mousse-filled creation in layers,
But crowned with a satiny top.

When asked if the cake could, with icing,
Be personalized on the spot,
The counterman grinned with excitement;
I gathered he does this a lot.

With beautifully swirled dainty letters,
How deftly he piped every word,
But before he completed his artwork,
A happenstance strangely occurred.

He’d asked not a word ‘bout my daughter
But finished his icing design
With a musical staff and a clef note
When it’s music that makes her life shine.

How’d you know? was the best I could muster.
He just smiled as he tenderly placed
What he’d lovingly done in a cake box;
It’s just perfect, no matter the taste.

Premium Member There for My Firsts HAPPY MOTHERS DAY

There for My Firsts - HAPPY HEAVENLY MOTHER'S DAY
Kevin Davis 2024

Someone gave me my first kiss and made me feel love at first sight,
Someone gave me my first hug and made me feel warm inside.
Someone dried my first tears and stopped the pain I felt,
Someone knew what made me feel good making me feel just right.

Someone cleaned me inside and out and made me feel so right,
Someone made me feel safe and calm all my terrible frights.
Someone cared enough for me to anticipate all of my needs.
Someone was my very first playmate and taught me so many things.

Someone shared with me their wisdom, teaching me right from wrong.
Someone’s very gentle guidance saw that I grew very strong.
Someone taught me to believe in my dreams, encouraging me to soar,
Someone’s love was a strong beacon and will be there forevermore. 

Someone was always there for my many first things, both day and night.
It was always you Mom, you knew just how to treat me so very right

Mother's Day

Those who understand me without saying everything,
The one who gets scared before me in every trouble...!

Even if I don't have it, still it is with me,
There is a new hope in everything...

She encourages me
That's what's most special
when she is with
So happiness is also around me...!

Oh! My dear mother,
You are my world.
In the garden of my life,
Flower of happiness
You are a gardener...!

Like flowers smell the gardens,
That's how you smell my life.
As water makes a plant grow,
In the same way you inculcate us with good thoughts...!

Avenge your favors
How will I pay you, mum?
Will my daughter's be like you, mum!?

Mother, Iii

O dear mother, you have left me, on one of those deep and dark winter nights. When the chilling wind from the northern frozen waste came by the window of 
your heart and violently shook it, O dear mother, you left me, stepping on the pile of shattered stars and waning moon

By that same window, I, your daughter is kneeling and praying,
and in this moment of tranquility, and in this moment of darkness,
your care from above stands as tears in your eyes and turns into 
the descending starlight and comes to me, who prays with 
folding hands while looking up you in the heaven

I am walking by the lake where the poor woman’s enmity 
once waved high, I am walking a path by your mind’s lake 
where the lapse of time calmed the surging waves,  
hence the water is quiet as it can be

For the sound of gentle waves is the lullaby once you sang to me
I, your daughter is, under the soft moonbeam, floating lightly 
on the water in the sweet dream where I roam

O dear mother, wet with early morning’s dew, 
you are praying for your daughter. And, I, your daughter, 
present a nosegay of white carnation on your folded knees, and sob

Corner - I love you, mother

Mother: a wax crayon candle in a starless room
You have many layers, like an onion
And you're coloured, but not green
So a wax-crayon candle is favoured here.
Much more poetic.

Although I bathe in the dark
You sit in my corner
Flickering                                   
                flickering                    
                               like            
                                         this.
And you wish not intrude
In your offers of solace.
No.
You don't set my room on fire
You just light up my corner
With the gift of a place to be seen.

A place of security,
Whether I visit it or not.

AND YES, you are loved. YES, you are valued.
             (so don't even doubt it)

And yes, your Crayola hues, your mix-n-match
May clash in the eyes of OTHERS
But parallel to even your Converse shoes:
They complement each other

And though I don't always visit this corner...
...Of candlelight in my room,
You should know you're not alone
With my candlelight, too.

Let this Mother's Day have a deeper meaning

Happy Mother's Day

My poem is for all mothers globally. May we collectively pray for love and light and peace to permeate the darkness and create a better world for ourselves and our children. 

Let this Mother's Day have a deeper meaning 
By Michelle Morris 
15/03/2026

Today is Mother's Day 
We celebrate it with loved ones dear
Throughout the world we feel its peace
The love we share far and near

But it's not possible for all families 
When separated by war and strife
Sometimes the thing they're grateful for
Is being able to survive the night

So, let's all take a moment in silence 
To send prayers of blessings and goodwill
For protection and hope and faith 
To send good and mercy to all

To say thank you for all we have
To appreciate wisdom and freedom 
To hold on to our hope and faith
Focus on positivity and keep believing 

So, don't let the hope die
Let this Mother's Day have a deeper meaning 
For everyone needs a mother 
And love and light and freedom
