Motherly Poems

Motherly Aunt

A mother 
A carer
An aunt she might be 
A growing bond like a best friend is what she is to me

A warm and comforting heart of love and care
A strong personality that would take on a dare
Reflects as inspiration in her glare

Footprints I will follow as it guides me a far 
Shadow I want to

Motherly Love and Frowns

                         Motherly Love and Frowns


Treading down the memory lane streams to my mind 
memories from far yet near, some sweet, some sour,
memories preciously shelved in the precincts of my inner sanctum;

so

Light

‘I was born with the meaning of home running through my veins.’ - Lauren Eden 
**************************************************************

Light

with home rule in my veins
paternal care not vain words
 motherly hug a retreat
 sisterly smiles like rays of sunshine
 the mind free to wander like the breeze
early to rise a routine
offering devotions a sheer joy
the glow of inner light
now

Motherly - Nyasia Wiley

How can you heal a broken heart
When the purity of your own
Has been tainted
With the viewpoints of hatred
For the souls you trusted 
With your own

How can I not run
When my own life has been
Nothing but a pure understanding
Of my own pain and suffering

For yet I give you all I can
Knowing that the only person that
Suffers,

the motherly pine

the motherly pine
bares her claws, grabs and provides
shelter from the cold

Motherly Love

Puff sucked nipple pure
Motherly love teem role call
Beauty made for sure.

In Mary's Warm Arms

In the freezing night
In the cold world of mankind
In Mary’s warm arms
Laid burning love wrapped in flesh
An incinerating light  

Motherly Love

Tik tok goes the clock
With each set of time
Her energetic vibrant being
turns frail
She who i'll never call by her name

In retrospect,she raged
Against this decadent diabolical world
She raged to give her bairns the best  of life,
The tenderness of her infinite love
In equal measure we give our allegiance

Albeit in absence of economic strength
We never went to

Nature's Motherly Beauty

In nature's realm, beauty lies.
Where mother's love forever flies.
A tapestry of colors, vivid and grand,
With a gentle touch of mother's hand.

As dawn awakens and the skies ignite,
With a vibrant palette of pure delight.
The sun, a mother's warm embrace,
Kissing the earth with golden grace.

A symphony of birdsong fills the air.
Echoing the love that mothers share.

Some Suspiciously Specious Motherly Advice

Happy National Parents Day (tomorrow, July 24) to all you Poetry Soup moms who are, ever have been, or who would like to be. And with this caveat...be careful what you tell your children. They often tend to be quite liberal with your meaning and quite literal in their interpretations.


My mama taught me manners
That serve

Calming Motherly Qualms

“… Progress toward retrogression…”
yes, I questioned diagnosis with mixed emotions
as fear swelled over courage, striving to prevail
yet, faith in God* surmounted my motherly qualms.
Now, our special child in his wheel chair zooms toward progress
singing praises to the Lord in sign language blissfully. 

*Mark 11:22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.

The Pepperman and Motherly Nature

I OPENED A DOOR 
IN THE UNIVERSE.

I FIND MYSELF, 
SITTING,
ON A GRASSY KNOLL.

UNDER A VERY OLD
AND VERY LARGE 
OAK TREE.

THE SKY 
WAS A HEAVENLY,  
BEAUTIFUL BLUE.

A WARM 
GENTLE BREEZE 
CARESSED 
THE WILD FLOWERS.

STIMULATING 
THE MILD FRAGRANCES 
TO FROLIC ABOUT.

AS THE GENTLE BREEZE 
FLIRTED WITH 
AND TICKLED,
THE OAK TREES LEAVES. 

SOFT SOUNDS 
OF LAUGHTER 
COULD

Nature's No Motherly Love

the cuckoo in spring
needs to suss out homely nest
comes with baring gifts...
adoption not an option
a brood parasite in lieu

Motherly Bug

first things first you think the worst 
take my worst days and make them worse 
dismiss my words so my side's not heard
and kick like strangers when I'm down hurt 

I fall out with friends you side with them 
isolate me further with sympathy for them 
if the world's against me you side against
you make

Motherly

The love a mother gives will last a lifetime~
   The lack of love she gives will last for two.
