I wish i could tell you
“I wish i could tell you, mom
how much you mean to me…..
but there are no words to say
how much i admire you ….
how much i appreciate you..
how much i thank you
for everything you’ve done.”

Nobody knows
“Nobody knows of the work it makes
To keep the home together.
Nobody knows of the steps it takes,
Nobody knows-but  my Mother.”

Although a daughter, I write this as a mother
“Although a daughter, I write this as a mother.
We’re both mothers now, of child-daughters:
You, a grandmother forced to be a mother,
And I, a widow, alone with my fatherless daughter.
Death has thus shaped both our lives in ways
We would not have chosen. Yet life is still the bright,
Painfully lovely thing it was always:
Our children like dancers on a dark, splendid night,
Needing our loves as I needed yours; your love
The same song as ever, a lullaby I remember
So well from my time in your arms. We move
In slow spirals towards the stars. September
Has weeks like June, yet is closer to the fall.
Love has no answers, yet its beauty answers all.
For me, two mothers aren’t one too many:
One’s for real, and one’s for other things.
Remember: there are those who haven’t any,
Missing their one chance at angel’s wings.
You’re the one most free to mother me,
Giving without worrying I’ll be spoiled.
Often my real mother “has to see,”
Dreading I might get my future soiled.
More than just an aunt, what’s in your heart
Opens doors within where I can go
To learn the difficult and gentle art
Happiness embraces those who know.
Each moment that you love me makes me whole:
Rare is she who can so grace a role.”

Wonderful mother
“God made a wonderful mother,
A mother who never grows old;
He made her smile of the sunshine,
And He moulded her heart of pure gold;
In her eyes He placed bright shining stars,
In her cheeks fair roses you see;
God made a wonderful mother,
And He gave that dear mother to me. “

A Mothers Love

To some love is just a word
“To some love is just a word
To me it’s a feeling
A feeling I get everytime I look into your eyes
A feeling I get when I realize your my mom
A mom who loves, shares,A mom who inspires
Unconditionally
What’s that?
That’s love
A mothers love, but only you would know
And me
You returned that love time and time again
Possibly to much, nevertheless you did
Thank-you
Thank-you for being there when I needed you most
For being my rock when I should have been yours
Thank-you for believing in me, even when I doubted myself
For being the one person I could trust
No matter what, no matter where
But most of all thank-you for being you-my mom
A mom I am so proud to claim
I love you
Now and forever.”
