Mother's Day comes once a year. Some think that if they buy their mother flowers and a card that they have fulfilled their obligation for the rest of the year. If we would only comprehended a small part of what our mothers did for us as children. How they would literally die for us if needed. We would realize that one day is not sufficient. Mother's Day should be a time to remind us that we have been neglecting our duties as sons and daughters. This relationship is sacred let us honor our mothers.

Sometimes I know the words to say to give thanks for all you've done,
but then they fly up and away as quickly as they come.
How could I possibly thank you enough, the one who makes me whole,
My mother is still alive at 96, and I am 73. I am the one who visits her and takes her yogurt and toiletries. My late father's pension pays for her accommodation at a home. I used to work...

If I could have just one more day and
wishes did come true,
I'd spend every glorious moment
side by side with you.
We all wish for one more day with the loved ones we've lost. I wish for one more day to be with my mum. She was one of the sweetest, most loving and caring mothers in the world. She was my...
Lord, are there roses in your garden
On the shores of jubilee
Would you pick a dozen of your best
And deliver them for me?
Thank you for this poem. My mom went home to be with the Lord 12 years ago, and it still feels like just yesterday. This poem means so much to me. One cannot forget their mother. Happy...

I've tried to write so many times,
But it's been hard to say in rhymes.
I'll try once more and hope you'll see
Just what your love has meant to me.
Mum, thank you for keeping me close to your heart.
Thank you for never allowing me to fall apart.
Thank you for holding me up for all these years,
But most of all, thank you for drying my tears.
I was watching you sleep the other day
And prayed that it would last
The peace that rested on your face
I'd never seen in the past
Your words about mother brought tears to me. Three years ago, my mother passed away. She was 92+ at that time but very happy personality. Being the youngest child, I have seen her just...

You brushed my hair and tucked me in,
Made me laugh for hours on end.
You kissed my boo-boos when I fooled around.
Mommy, you never let me down.
This is a touching poem from a daughter to mother showing all the little things to the big things that matter in life between a mother and daughter. I love this poem. It's so sentimental!...
The hand that rocks the cradle
also makes the house a home.
It is the prayers of the mother
that keeps the family strong.
This is beautifully expressed. The introductory lines carry so much truth to keep one pressing on to the end. I love this.
You are the one who brought me along,
You are the one who sang me that song.
You are the one who taught me all there was to learn.
You are the one who helped me not to burn.
Hi Nicole,
Mothers are pretty special. I, too, love my mum who has always been a positive person of faith. You might enjoy this as a sharing part of my reply post:

A 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.
This is a wonderful poem. It evoked a strong emotional response & made me think of my own wonderful mother. I very nearly teared up. I couldn't have written it any better. Well done.
