Happy Mother's Day

The love of a mother is beyond compare

One who dearly loves and is always there

From scraped knees

To falls from trees

A mother cares for all

From “I told you so”

To “That’s a no-no! ”

A mother answers the call

Mothers cook, mothers clean, some even work a job

Even with all their strength, a mother still knows how to sob

Mothers should be honored for all they have done

Every day of the year, not just one

There is nothing better than a mother’s love

For her time on this earth thank God above

A mother’s love endures forever

Its unbreakable bonds no on can sever

No matter how much I have grown

My mother’s love is always shown

She has become a mentor and a guide

Within her always I am able to confide

No better payment for her I can find

Then to love her with heart, and with mind

To the one who bore me; I share my emotion

To the one who raised me; Absolute devotion

To this woman I express my joy

You will always be my “mommy” and I your “baby boy”

- Glaedr the poet
