Mother Child Poems
Mother to Child Poems
Did you ever wonder how a child ended up with a specific mother? According to Sufi mysticism, the soul of the child looks down at the world and sees every soul that resides in every woman. When he finds the one that will be able to help him fulfill his life's purpose, he makes his choice. The relationship between the mother and child is no accident. At times the child may reject his mother and wish he had a different one. Remember your soul made the choice for a reason. This woman can help you live your purpose.

1. I Will Be
Unconditional LoveI will always be there for you.
You will never be alone.
I will be that candle in the window,
So you can always find your way back home.
I will be the sun in the sky
To brighten up your day,
I will be the moon shining above,
So in the dark you can find your way.
I will be the blanket when you're cold.
You will feel my warmth around you,
I will be the shoulder for you to cry on
When you're upset or feeling blue.
I will be the listening ears
When you need someone to talk to.
I will be the advice that you need
When you don't know what to do.
I will be the voice inside your head,
Telling you not to give up, to fight,
I will be the hand patting your back
When you stand up for what is right.
I will be those stars you wish upon
To help you realize your dreams.
I will be the needle and the thread
If it all falls apart at the seams.
I will be the map to anywhere,
To help you when you are lost.
I will be that number you can call for anything,
No matter what the cost.
I will be that feeling in your heart
That let's you know I'll love you like no other.
I will be anything you need at anytime.
I will always be...your mother.

2. Mother, A Cradle To Hold Me
It is true
I was created in you.
It is also true
That you were created for me.
I owned your voice.
It was shaped and tuned to soothe me.
Your arms were molded
Into a cradle to hold me, to rock me.
The scent of your body was the air
Perfumed for me to breathe.
Mother,
During those early, dearest days
I did not dream that you had
A large life which included me,
For I had a life
Which was only you.
Time passed steadily and drew us apart.
I was unwilling.
I feared if I let you go
You would leave me eternally.
You smiled at my fears, saying
I could not stay in your lap forever.
That one day you would have to stand
And where would I be?
You smiled again.
I did not.
Without warning you left me,
But you returned immediately.
You left again and returned,
I admit, quickly,
But relief did not rest with me easily.
You left again, but again returned.
You left again, but again returned.
Each time you reentered my world
You brought assurance.
Slowly I gained confidence.
You thought you know me,
But I did know you,
You thought you were watching me,
But I did hold you securely in my sight,
Recording every moment,
Memorizing your smiles, tracing your frowns.
In your absence
I rehearsed you,
The way you had of singing
On a breeze,
While a sob lay
At the root of your song.
The way you posed your head
So that the light could caress your face
When you put your fingers on my hand
And your hand on my arm,
I was blessed with a sense of health,
Of strength and very good fortune.
You were always
the heart of happiness to me,
Bringing nougats of glee,
Sweets of open laughter.
During the years when you knew nothing
And I knew everything, I loved you still.
Condescendingly of course,
From my high perch
Of teenage wisdom.
I grew older and
Was stunned to find
How much knowledge you had gleaned.
And so quickly.
Mother, I have learned enough now
To know I have learned nearly nothing.
On this day
When mothers are being honored,
Let me thank you
That my selfishness, ignorance, and mockery
Did not bring you to
Discard me like a broken doll
Which had lost its favor.
I thank you that
You still find something in me
To cherish, to admire and to love.
I thank you, Mother.
I love you. -
3. A True Angel
Poem From Son About All A Mother DoesA mother is special; she's more than a friend.
Whenever you need her, she'll give you a hand.
She'll lead you and guide you in all that you do,
Try all that she can just to see you get through.
Good times and bad times, she's there for it all.
Say head up, be proud, and always stand tall.
She'll love you through quarrels and even big fights,
or heart-to-heart chats on cold lonely nights.
My mother's the greatest that I've ever known.
I think God made my mother like He'd make his own.
A praiser, a helper, an encourager too,
nothing in this world that she wouldn't do.
To help us succeed, she does all that she can,
raised a young boy now into a man.
I want to say thank you for all that you do.
Please always know, Mom, that I love you.

Stepping stones to the stars.

Her heart has no bars.

To be confident and bold.

More valuable than silver or gold.

And wipes away life's tears.

And silences life's fears.

Her children's accomplishments in life.

With her tender loving way.

5. I Love You, Mum
The way I feel, I can't explain
The gratitude inside
For all the days and all the nights
You spent right by my side.
For every hug and every kiss
To send me on my way,

Unbreakable Bond Of Mother And Child PoemThe tears, the years, the hurt, the fears,
The lies, the ties, the days, and goodbyes

All the tears that leave my eyes
Evaporate because of you.
You hold the nature of pure and true.

12. Thank You Mom
If I took a little minute to write a poem for you,
It would turn into a lifetime for all the things you do....
So I'll try and keep it simple.
There's some things I wish to say,
And what better day to say them than
Today on Mother's Day?
Things haven't been easy for you.
We know you've had it tough
With one thing or another
God knows enough's enough.
At times you're so frustrated
And you're feeling rather low,
But you're cherished by your family
More than you will ever know.
We know you want your life back
And how things used to be,
But things will soon get better mum.
Just you wait and see.
In all my life you guided me
And showed me right from wrong.
You are my inspiration, Mum.
You're the music in my song.
You were there for me when times were hard.
You're always close at hand.
You guided me to happiness.
You're the best mum in the land.
I never could repay you.
You're worth your weight in gold.
If ever I would need you, Mum,
Your hand is there to hold.
Your advice is always listened to,
But you always have to say,
"It's your decision, Sweetheart."
You'll make it, come what may.
So thank you, Mum, for making me
The person I've become,
And through your loving guidance
I'm a clone of you, my mum.Latest Shared StoryThanks for making this wonderful poem. It really touched me in many ways just thinking of the look on my moms face after hearing this. We never really had a relationship, but I think this...

13. My Angel
Poem About The Bond Of A Mother And ChildFrom the moment I came into this world and opened my big brown eyes,
I knew that I was looking at an Angel, because the heart, it never lies.
Through all of life's hard struggles, this Angel has always been there.
Always hanging on when the ride got rough, always showing how much she cares.
For life is a constant struggle, more now than ever before.
Much too hard for an Angel, oh how I wish I could give her more.
The days, they pass so quickly, each one faster than the last.
But we know that we must go forward and not dwell on mistakes of the past.
And so we venture on through this hateful world, though my Angel she is always calm.
So I'll follow on always together with this Angel that I call mom.Latest Shared Storyomg thats do sad im crying right now i can imagine how your life has been

Poem For All You Have DoneFor all the things you have done
Every morning rose the sun.
Off to work you would go.
At home, love to us you show.
For all the sacrifices you have made
Keeping us warm when you were in the shade.
So many things I have put you through

15. To My Mummy
For My Wife From Our Baby On Mother's DayTo my Mummy,
From the moment we met
And you held me so tight,
I knew I was safe
As you kissed me goodnight.
I woke up so often
And stumbled with feeds.
You never gave up on me,
Met all my needs.
Now that I'm almost
A three-month0old boy,
I want you to know that
You're my greatest joy.
They say that we look alike,
Same eyes and nose,
Better than looking
Like Dad, I suppose.
I love when we cuddle.
I love when we play.
I love that you sing to me
Every day.
Whenever I cry or
I poop or I pee,
Thank you for taking
Such good care of me.
Thank you for loving me,
No matter what.
Everything you do
To me means a lot.
Next time you hear me say,
"Ga ga goo goo,"
What I'm really saying is,
"Mummy, I love you."
Happy Mother's Day
Love,
Eóin xxLatest Shared StoryWow. That poem is so sweet and really touched my heart. Thank you to the writer of this poem! I will read it again and again and again.

16. To Mom
Mother And Best FriendI've always counted on you to be there for me, and you always were.
I've counted on you to tell me right from wrong when I wasn't sure.
I would come to you when I thought I didn't have a friend in this world.
I guess if I were an oyster, you would be my shining pearl.
Whenever I was hurting, I could always count on you to ease my pain.
I've came to you with so many problems, yet you've never complained.
I know times have changed and we talk less and less each day.
But though our mouths don't speak, our hearts have much to say.
I've come to you with broken heart, bad dreams and all,
And you made realize that you will always be there to catch me if I fall.
I'm so glad to have you in my life when things go wrong
Because I know when I talk to you that my problem will not last long.
You've been a mother to me as well as my best friend throughout the years.
When I had nightmares, you were there beside me to chase away my fears.
When I was sick, you were always there next to my bedside.
You gave me strength to hold on when I thought I was going to die.
I guess I never realized how much having you in my life really meant.
Out of all the moms I could have had, I'm glad it was you whom God sent.
I LOVE YOU, MOM!
