Mother's Day 2018: An Ode To All Mothers
It's Mother's Day 2018, even when we know more are still coming the same year. Mothers are interesting. They are key pieces to life. They are the glue that holds families together. They are the building blocks that lay down the foundations.
They are the rules because they make the rules. "Don't stand up on my couch." "Don't run or horse-play in the house." "Wash your hands before you eat." Because of their worth, Mother's Day had to be created. It is only right to thank them and reflect on how much of a difference that mothers have made in various lives. For my mom, I decided to dedicate an ode to you.
"Poems like this you can’t directly explain Why a mother like you always reign You do so much and hardly complain I hate see your Mother’s Day so original and plain So in the future just take a trip to Spain
If I could I would write you a book Or create a painting without a look You asked for a special ingredient for you to cook Gave you two choices: my love or a hook And my love is what you took
Votes against my maturity wouldn’t cast I grew up on you so fast That you still treat me like the past I’m sorry the baby boy in me isn’t vast But my love for you will always last
Every day I’m wiser as you can see You helped me flow smooth like the sea And fly freely like a bird and a bee Times may be hard so just let me be But no matter what never stop loving me
Now that your baby boy has grown up, too I became less dependent on you But caring for me is all you know to do You remind me to never bite off more than I can chew So Happy Mother's Day; I will always love you"
Mom, you are an extraordinary superhero. Your heart is always set on helping someone You bend over backwards to help other mothers raise their children You become a mother to the motherless Honestly, I used to be jealous when I saw other kids getting your attention Now, I am thankful that they were able to receive and witness the love of wonderful mother like you.
"Sometimes words can be broken Even for someone who is outspoken Especially in times when people haven’t spoken So let these words be the voice of the unspoken And let this poem be your token
We didn’t really understand each other years ago So our connection was growing slow You kept trying to go with the flow In the end you made my days sparkle and glow Now you can have the spotlight to my show
A mother like you is ultra rare Because you treat me with all your care When heaven’s lights shine with a flare You’re just like a prayer So I want you to take me there
We all know that life goes on But without you my life is gone You’re sweet like a pie made with pecan I need you like the pillow I sleep upon So as my life progress you won’t be withdrawn
When times get hard you don’t look down or the other way I admire how you spend time to kneel and pray You’re more amazing than a Shakespeare play If I could I would award you with a bouquet So thanks again for everything and Happy Mother’s Day"
