Mother Poem

The Extraordinary Love A Mother Provides

This poem is written in rhyme format and is about the love and care a loving mother provides.
I grew up in a large family. I am the eighth of nine children. Mother loved us all equally and worked diligently to provide us with everything we needed. We learned as babes to love and respect our Creator, our elders, and to treat others with kindness. I thank God each day for the wonderful mother He gave me.

A Mother Is Special

Published by Family Friend Poems June 15, 2022 with permission of the author.

A mother is a special gift
From our Father in heaven above.
She holds, consoles; spirits she lifts,
She gives to her children enduring love.
She teaches them right from wrong.
Mends broken hearts with a kiss, a hug,
A happy ending story, a lively song,
A barrage of encouraging words...
Extraordinary is a mother's touch,
Empowered by God I surmise,
For a single embrace invigorates much
And eradicates tears from saturated eyes.
Love for her children exists outside of time.
She is able to anticipate every need.
For wherever they are, she is not far behind,
Guiding and inspiring them to succeed.
Almighty God, I can't thank you enough
For the wonderful gift you've given us.
A gift so amazing and divine...
That fascinating mother of mine!
