A Treasure

I know it isn't Mother's Day but I came across this poem I wrote for last years Mother's Day and thought some of you might enjoy it.

A mother is the heart of the home

Even if she doesn’t understand Chrome

A mother is a sweet consoler and friend

Even if she isn’t in the latest trend

Though best buddies may seem awesome

It’s a mother that helps you blossom

Whether stubborn girl or boy

She knows she can turn you out as a bundle of joy

Though she does have her faults in more places than one

It’s her pride and respect you’ll seek when you’re done

It’s her joy and her peace her laugh and her smile

That will rub off on you better than any new style

Your friends will head their separate ways

The ones you thought you’d have for the rest of your days

When disserted by others in times of distress

It’s that grey haired old lady in a dress

That will be by your side with a word of encouragement

Her love is the one that is permanent

So this mother’s days, while others forget the special woman in their lives

Weather mothers, sisters, or wives

Remember that special woman with a word a gift or a prayer

And don’t be forgetful, instead out of your life give a little care
