To The Sweetest Mother
Poet: Mary RedingtonTo the sweetest, sweetest mother,
Dearer by far than any other,
Sweeter the longer we are together,
Happy and brave in stormy weather,
I'll love you always through thick and thin,
Let's stick together - we're sure to win.
My Mother
Poet: Katherine RhodesOf all the beautiful things in the world,
I love you best, my dear mother.
And when at breakfast I think of you,
I love you best; I love you.
I love you, dear mother, best
You are so sweet, so sweet, so sweet.
I am sure there's not another one
Like my dear sweet mother.
Mothers Day Poems From Daughter
Growing Old
Poet: Bessie M. BrummettMy dear Mother's growing old:
Her face is lined with care.
But each line represents some trouble
Or burden she's helped to share.
Her first thought always for others,
When misfortunes come our way,
And all other friends forsake us,
Mother never turns away.
Her hair has turned to silver.
So clean and pure like her soul.
But to me it's far more beautiful
Then a young head crowned with gold.
When her earthly life is over
And she enters heaven fair,
I am sure a crown of jewels
Will shine in her silvery hair.
Growing Old Poems
Mother
Poet: Muriel HorowitzA kindly word,
A caressing hand.
A friendly voice that understands,
That's mother.
A gentle word that is heard
The whole day through.
No matter how much work there is to do,
She works all day while we're at play,
That's mother.
To My Mother
Poet: Grace ParksMother dear, I love you best,
Better by far than all the rest,
I'm sending you my truest love,
As tender and fine as the stars above,
We've been together for all these years,
Let's stick together through laughter and tears.
Tribute To A Mother
Mother to Grandma
Poet: Julie Hebert, © 2011To everyone else, you're just a person,
But to me, you're someone great.
I hope to be like you someday,
especially on my due date.
I couldn't have had a better teacher,
Someone who molded me into the woman I am.
But now I must take those teachings,
And hope they will make me a grand slam.
Not long from now, I will be a mother,
And I have to say nervousness is me.
But I trust you’ve taught me all that I need,
To be as good of a mother as thee.
So thanks for teaching me kindness,
You were loving, genuine, and fun.
I know you'll be a great-grandma,
As your work here is not yet done!
Grandma Poems
Not Perfect
by Zoraida PesanteI am not a perfect mother and I will never be.
You are not a perfect daughter and you will never be.
But put us together and we will be
The best mother and daughter we would ever be.
I'm Now A Mother
Poet: Catherine PulsiferThe moments we shared,
Oh, where did they go?
Now I'm at the place
Where you've been long ago.
Nurturing, leading, and teaching with care,
Showing me how to prepare.
You made endless compromises for my sake,
And I can no longer mistake.
I am eternally thankful, Mom, for all that you contributed;
Helping shape my life since I was a kid.
Your guidance will forever be remembered-
It helped me become who I am now - a mother!
Mom Poems
My Ideal
Poet: Doris NixonThe pirate's ideal is ever to be bold
And the miser is always greedy full of gold.
The king always wants more world to rule,
And the queen seeks to wear an expensive jewel.
The sailor likes a ship on the sea,
The urchin has dreams of president to be.
But all I want is to grow every day
More like my Mother in every way.
Seasons
Poet: Kate SummersA mother and daughter go through the seasons of life together,
Both of them growing making each better
Sharing the ups and downs,
Fooling around, acting like a clown.
Experiencing life's highs
And, at times a few sighs
But nothing can come between these two
There is a bond that is solid and true.
I Am Blessed
Poet: Catherine PulsiferA daughter's love for her mom is admired,
That by none can be easily expired;
Your guidance and support I shall always appreciate,
I cherish the memories I must reiterate.
Your encouragement guided me through life so far,
For any hardship faced, you were my shining star;
Your support still remains strongly by my side,
You have taught me to take things in stride.
For every problem faced your offerings of advice,
Helped me walk triumphantly down the path that was precise;
My heart is overwhelmed with joy and gratitude,
I am blessed as a daughter to have a Mom like you!
I Love My Mother
by Priscilla ClarkI love my mother don't you think I should?
Every day I would love her, I would
Some day she won't let you have your own way,
She will tell you why if you stay,
But be good to mother and to one another.
A Mothers Love Poem
Mother Daughter Feelings
Poet: Catherine PulsiferMother growing up I didn't appreciate
Your advice, how appropriate.
The love you showed to me
Was more than a daughter could ever be.
Daughter, I tried to protect you
From hurt that life can do.
I loved you more than you can know
I tried to steer you so.
Mother growing up I never saw
The things you gave up, you went without
There were times I just sat with a pout
Oh, if I had only realized!
Daughter, they were only things
For you, happiness I would bring.
There is nothing I gave up
That I wouldn't do again.
Mother growing up we disagreed
I thought you didn't understand me.
But now I realize you cared a lot
And only my happiness you sought.
Daughter oh, daughter I understood
I tried to give you a positive attitude.
My love for you will always be
Full and strong even when you were contrary.
Mother I know I was not perfect
But I love you even with my defects!
Daughter, I love you more
In that, you can feel secure!
Mother Of Mine
by A DaughterYou nursed me through my infant years
You loved me as a child,
You shared with me my hopes and fears,
With counsels good and mild,
And when my erring footsteps strayed.
How sad that heart of thine,
You loved me better than before.
Dear Mother, Mother mine.
