A Mother's Love You carried me for nine months and brought me in to the world, You was overjoyed and excited when the doctor said " it's a girl", You showered me with love and kisses as you held me in your arms, You made it your upmost responsibility to protect and shield me from harm, you gave me...

M is for the moments you create, With love and laughter, you set the fate. In your arms, the world feels right, Turning every day into pure light. You make the ordinary shine, With you, life’s path is so divine. O is for the overflowing heart, T is for tenderness you show from the start. You open doors to dreams we chase, With every...

A mother by heart, a woman by mind A dual nature she presents She is glad to be a mother But who cares to bother? That she is also a woman She also works at home and at work She wonders her time of peace Perhaps it was because she never felt A bit of rest And a bit of appreciation is what she...

I’m going to tell you something. Even though I know your pity will just spore, like Huns of the night, into my world. I will be your broken bird on the sidewalk. If, at the end of a long day, when you coo perfumed nonsense around my wound, it clouds me in something that almost resembles a mother’s warm touch. Thank you for...

She sang me to sleep with a voice like flint— sparks tucked under lullabies. Spoons clattered in the sink like cymbals in a warning. She kissed my grazed knee then asked why I always fall. Love was measured in thirds: a gaze, a sigh, a withheld "well done". At dawn, she watered dead plants just in case. I mistook her absence for freedom. Now I trace her shadow across my choices....

a practiced smile on her face a mother’s oenomel breath puffs wind under gossamer wings reminiscent of the translucent wings of green lacewings— mistaken for a pest, but beneficial— to strike out and explore a thorny world resisting the siren call of spring’s scent turning their heads with songs of love emerging personalities unravel the cocoon spun in...

Chocolate is for me, Color me beautiful. Can dip fried bacon or, Crunchy with lots of nuts. Could live with pineapple, Causing smiles everywhere. Candy box is great gift....

to come home to a mother, after a long day at school, to that greeting of love and care, to a spotless house, and aroma of food that she makes so well, to her healing maternal touch, … those bygone days, still stay with me… to drive home to a caring wife, waiting alone for me at home, for that hug and kiss, the...

Our sweet mother went to heaven one Spring day. Four years ago, the flowers folded their wings. Hymns, ethereal in the fog; smile at bay. Left at table, in closet, on shelves - her things. Most dearly departed, her ticket one-way. And my father cheers her urn each day. She’s in our hearts, our thoughts are off and flying. This family is...

UNCONDITIONAL To all the mothers, near and far, Beneath the brightest, guiding star, Or in the quiet, gentle gleam, Living out a precious dream. For every tear you've softly dried, For every fear you've cast aside, For scraped knees kissed and made anew, For whispered words, both kind and true. For sleepless nights and weary days, Lost in a loving, hazy maze Of tiny hands and...

My sweetness, from you, my first meal, Exclusively for six. And for many more months after~ The grub that made me tick. You'd go hungry for me to eat. Still my tum begs for more What yours for days has been denied, For hunger there to roar. Empty tummy twirls blank your eyes, Then you fall down and faint. Still you rise just to find...

MOTHER'S DAY POEM My Metaphor states: a bouquet of love, a garden of care, Solemnly surrounds me with women beyond compare. My wife, a partner, a friend, a mother, and a guide, Nurtures with love and affectionate heart inside. Big sisters, supportive, wise, strong and so kind, Lead by example, with a good heart and sound mind. Younger sister, sweet and a...

You shirk the weight of parenthood's call, leaving your children to wither, unfed. Are you a father, or mere specter of one? A mother, or just a shadow that's gone? While others nurture, educate, and guide, you abandon your own to fate's tide. Your concern lies with outsiders, it seems, while your kin suffer, and your legacy beams. The children you forsook, the...
