Mother's Day Poems

Touching Poems for Mother's Day

Mother's Day comes once a year. We buy our mothers flowers and a card, and even include a poem. But, we must know that we have not fulfilled our obligation for the rest of the year. If we would comprehended a small part of what our mothers did for us as children. How they would quite literally die for us if needed. We would realize that one day is not enough. Mothers Day should be a time to remind us not to neglect our duties as sons and daughters. The mother child relationship is a sacred bond, let us honor our mothers on this special day and every day.
