MOTHERS DAY POEM

 

It takes a mother’s Love to make a house a home;

A place to be remembered, no matter where we roam.

It takes a mother’s Patience to bring a child up right,

And her Courage and her Cheerfulness to make a dark night bright.

It takes a mother’s Thoughtfulness to mend the heart’s deep hurts,

And her Skill and her Endurance to mend little socks and shirts.

It takes a mother’s Kindness to forgive us when we err,

To sympathize in trouble and bow her head in prayer.

It takes a mother’s Wisdom to recognize our needs,

And to give us reassurance by her loving words and deeds.

It takes a mother’s Endless Faith, her Confidence and Trust,

To guide us through the pitfalls, of selfishness and lust.
