Happy Days, Mother

Another poem for Mom, of course

HAPPY DAYS, MOTHER

 

Every year, I write you a poem for Mother's Day,

But this year, I have something special to say;

I love you most for just being you,

With all of the generous things you do;

When I need to talk, you are my friend,

On whose confidence I can always depend;

I never had to moan and complain, when I am low;

You comfort me, automatically, because somehow you know;

Oh, you like to tell embarassing stories about my past,

But I know the tales of yours are coming next;

You have been a part of most of my fun,

But you always understood that I do my deepest thinking alone;

You guided me down only the paths that interested me;

It was hard for you, at times, to let me be as I wanted to be;

You offered me your shoulder to cry upon,

But you encouragedme to solve the source of the tears, on my own;

There is much more that I could say,

But my respect for you increases, each day.

Author's Note

As a mother this totally touched my heart as most of your writing does. I think I must have touched you in a special way for you to express your feelings in your words. LOVE YOU ALWAYS & FOREVER!
