A Mother's Love Poem
Updated January 14, 2025, by Catherine Pulsifer
There is no love more powerful than a mother’s love. It is a love that begins before her child is born and lasts a lifetime.
A mother’s love is unconditional, filled with sacrifices and endless support. She encourages, forgives, and gives her time and energy without hesitation—all for the happiness of her child.
This bond between mother and child is unbreakable, a connection that grows stronger through every moment, every trial, and every joy. To witness true love, simply look at the relationship between a mother and her child.

My Love For My Child
Poet: Julie Hebert, © 2011
My love for my child is unbelievable,
I never knew I could love so much,
To see her every day is a blessing in underway,
Hard to believe love could be in a single touch.
I know I will love her forever,
Nothing will ever change that.
My love for her is true, and will never be blue,
Cause our love is nothing you'd poke fun at!

A Gift From God
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
A gift from God is my Mother's love
It is so real I know it is sent from above.
No matter what I say or do
My Mom's love is so true.
It is shown in many different ways
It doesn't matter the time of day
She is always there for me
Mom's love you can see.
I am so thankful each and every day
For my Mother, I do pray
Keep her safe every day
Her love for me is precious in every way.

A Mother's Love
Poet Unknown
A mother's love is like no other,
It's a bond that can't be undone.
Through every storm and every joy,
She's there, like a shining sun.
Her love is like a warm embrace,
That comforts and brings peace.
She's always there to wipe away tears,
And make worries and fears cease.
A mother's love is a guiding light,
That leads us through life's maze.
With her by our side, we know we'll find,
Love, support, and gentle praise.

A Mother's Love
Poet: Helen Steiner Rice
A Mother's love is something
that no on can explain,
It is made of deep devotion
and of sacrifice and pain,
It is endless and unselfish
and enduring come what may
For nothing can destroy it
or take that love away ...
It is patient and forgiving
when all others are forsaking,
And it never fails or falters
even though the heart is breaking ...
It believes beyond believing
when the world around condemns,
And it glows with all the beauty
of the rarest, brightest gems ...
It is far beyond defining,
it defies all explanation,
And it still remains a secret
like the mysteries of creation
A many splendoured miracle
man cannot understand
And another wondrous evidence
of God's tender guiding hand.

Vast And Boundless
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
A mother's love is vast and boundless,
It warms the heart and melts away sadness.
It cannot be broken nor contended, always
With us on our good and bad days.
A love that is there through dark and trying times,
Gently carrying us through life's steep climbs.
Our shelter in storms, our stars in night sky,
Mothers are one of God's gifts that we can't deny.

Love Forever
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
My children are my pride and joy
I love my girl and my boy.
The love I have for them
Is worth more than any gem.
For their happiness, I would give
My life so they could live
They have brought such happiness to me
I love them more than they can see.
A mother's love I now understand
It is forever and not a demand
When that baby is born
You find meaning life takes on.
While love takes on many forms
And love will see you through many storms
The love a mother has for her child
Is forever and never wild.

A Mother's Plea
Poet: Mary C. Plummer
Now, that I am old and gray with age,
Forsake me not, my child,
For 'twas thy mother's tender care.
That kept you all the while.
Cast me not into a corner,
And say, "Stay there, your time is o'er,"
For mother's love will ne'er diminish,
Each day she loves you more and more.
Then, to my fleeting years be patient,
For time has had its way with me,
And soon beneath the sod I'll slumber;
Yes, there to spend eternity.

With You As You Grow
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
The only love better than a Mother's love
Is the unconditional love of God above.
He created mothers with care
To give us love to share.
A Mother's love is always there
A Mother always cares
Never doubt your Mom is near
She is with you throughout your years.
She watches over you each day
She watches you as you play
And at night she puts you to bed
And kisses you gently on the head.
We grow and think we know it all
There are times with Mom we do brawl
But she never gives up on you
She loves you that is so true.
You can see Mom's love is a lot like God above
With attributes as Him above
She will always love you so
She is with you as you grow.

A Mother's Love
Poet: James Montgomery
A Mother's Love - how sweet the name!
What is a Mother's love? -
A noble, pure, and tender flame
Enkindled from above,
To bless a heart of earthly mold;
The warmest love that can grow cold:
This is a Mother's Love.
To bring a helpless babe to light,
Then, while it lies forlorn.
To gaze upon that dearest sight
And feel herself new-born.
In its existence lose her own,
And live and breathe in it alone:
This is a Mother's Love.
To mark its growth from day to day,
Its opening charms admire.
Catch from its eye the earliest ray
Of intellectual fire;
To smile and listen while it talks
And lend a finger when it walks;
This is a Mother's Love.
-
Deep And True
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
A mother's love is deep and true,
Her child a gift, bestowed from God above.
His blessing in this moment new,
Lifting hearts from darkness into love.
The miracle of human birth,
A sacred union shared by One,
The Lord looks down and sees its worth,
The gift for which no cost is done.
Gratitude for this miracle divine,
Mother bats her lashes wet with tears.
This precious life to Mother is so fine,
Her greatest joy throughout the years!
-
A Mother’s Bond
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
A mother’s love, a gentle thread,
Weaving warmth through words unsaid.
An unbreakable bond, steadfast, true,
A light that guides in all we do.
Through every trial, joy, and tear,
Her love remains both close and near.
No force on earth could tear apart,
The endless love of a mother’s heart.

No Love like a Mother's
Poet: John Jarvis Holden
There is no Love like a Mother's -
'Tis the Sun that shineth forth;
There is no Truth like a Mother's -
'Tis the Star that points the North;
There is no Hope like a Mother's -
'Tis the April in the clod;
There is not Trust like a Mother's -
'Tis the Charity of God:
The Love and Truth, the Hope and Trust
That make the mortal more than dust.

Like A Tree

A mother's love is like a tree,
Forever growing and forever strong.
Always loving and caring for her family,
Guiding each of us along.
No matter how hard the rain may pour,
With her around, we weather each storm.
Her tender love is felt to the core,
We never need to feel forlorn.
Her love keeps branching out like a tree

It Never Dies
Poet: E. O. Jewell
It never dies, - a mother's love
Strengthens with every ill that may betide;
In every phase of life its waters move
With current strong, and fathomless, and wide.
From the heart oft other flames may rise,
And while they seem as warm and grand and high.
The incense of one lives to reach the skies,
A mother's tender love can never die.
A Mother's Wisdom
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
A mother’s wisdom, a guiding light,
Through darkest days and longest night.
Her words like seeds, so gently sown,
In time they blossom, fully grown.
She teaches patience, love, and care,
Her lessons linger everywhere.
Though paths may twist and trials test,
Her guidance leads to what is best.
Each word she speaks, a treasure true,
A legacy she passes to you.
So cherish wisdom, pure and kind,
A mother’s love will ease your mind.

Memories of Motherhood
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
I remember the laughter, the giggles, the play,
The bedtime stories at the end of the day.
The way you would smile, your hand in mine,
Those simple moments, oh, so divine.
First steps, first words, first days at school,
Through every milestone, you made life full.
The tears and the joy, the hugs that we’d share,
Memories of motherhood, beyond compare.
As time moves on and years fly by,
I hold these moments like stars in the sky.
For the love of a mother, steadfast and true,
Lives on in the memories shared with you.

The Lighter Side of Mom
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
Mom has a way to make us grin,
Even when days are wearing thin.
Her quirky jokes and funny tales,
Lift our spirits when all else fails.
From mismatched socks to dances wild,
She shows the joy in being a child.
Burnt toast breakfasts, laundry blues,
Yet somehow she banishes all our woes.
With a wink and a laugh, she lightens the day,
In her silly and loving motherly way.
For her humor and heart, we give thanks galore,
Mom, you're the one we truly adore!
