Mothers Day

Mothers Day Greetings

For our forgotten mothers

Even though we are not living,

We remember you Mom!


We know it is hard

For you to have a good Mothers' Day

When your son is from this life apart,

We, your sons, thank each one of you on your day.


We know you feel sad and glum

When you are from your son apart.

Happy Mothers Day Mom

In this life you did your part.

Daughters

I know a girl
She puts the color inside of my world
But she's just like a maze
Where all of the walls all continually change
And I've done all I can
To stand on her steps with my heart in my hand
Now I'm starting to see
Maybe it's got nothing to do with me
Fathers, be good to your daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers, be good to your daughters too
Oh, you see that skin?
It's the same she's been standing in
Since the day she saw him walking away
Now she's left
Cleaning up the mess he made
So fathers, be good to your daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers, be good to your daughters too
Boys, you can break
You'll find out how much they can take
Boys will be strong
And boys soldier on
But boys would be gone without warmth from
A woman's good, good heart
On behalf of every man
Looking out for every girl
You are the god and the weight of her world
So fathers, be good to your daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers, be good to your daughters too

Mother Poems

We have Fathers Poems
Why not Mothers Poems?
Without our Mothers, we won't be born,
Without Mothers, We are so forlorn.
Babies, Mothers nurture,
And guide us in our future.
To Mothers everywhere,
Lovely poems, I do declare!

Mothers Day

Mothers day
is not like valentine day
where you care for your mother like money
since in 2012 it was on monday

mothers love and care
its so good that it floats in the air
although mothers take care for the hair
since they sit bossy on the chair

children celebrate them and rejoice
while drinking coke and ice
een the mother sits while eating rice
since their day is so nice

we dance and sing
as the father gives the mother a valentine ring
she sits on the chair relaxing
since she doesnt need to be working

we thank all the mothers since they are not mean
as their day is tight like a skinny jean
their work is sweet like a dream
all you have to do is say
HAPPY MOTHERS DAY

Happy Mothers Day

Happy mothers day mom
Im glad ur here
Now listen to this
You might want to here
You are the best mom i could ever want
And im glad ur here
Because if you weren't it would make me tear
Another mothers day had gone to fast
But just remember all of the good times from the past
Like the day i was born
O boy that was great
Or the way you use to run around with us an play
So i just wanted you to no how special you are
And thats why you deserve this card
You are the best mom any kid could want
Happy mothers day

I LOVE YOU MOM.........

The Battle

Dames should be doomed to dungeons
Who masticate raw onions.

She was the cuddly kind of Miss
A man can love to death;
But when I sought to steal a kiss
I wilted from a breath
With onion odour so intense
I lost my loving sense.

Yet she was ever in my thought
Like some exotic flower,
And so a garlic bulb I bought
And chewed it by the hour;
Then when we met I thrilled to see
'Twas she who shrank from me.

So breath to breath we battled there,
To dominate each other;
And though her onions odious were,
My garlic was a smother;
Till loth I said: 'If we would kiss
Let's call an armistice.

'Now we have proved that we are true
To our opinions,
My garlic I'll give up if you
Give up your onions.'
And so next day with honey sips
How sweet her lips!

Oil And Garlic And Peanuts

past aroma of
garlic sticking to the oil
to crunchy peanuts

on that tryst
under the acacia trees
on a line of electric lamp posts
we watch the sea

the salty winds touch our faces
we were pure
we only want some company
we had nothing to do

it was the last day
of the garlic flavored peanuts
and then we parted

we were like the winds of the sea
on a short stay
at the boulevard
cooling off some broken dreams

Woman as mother

Cruel women are kind hearted mothers.
Strict women are liberal mothers.
Selfish women are generous mothers.
They excel other mothers in nursing.

~ Pero Yo Te Saludo Madre ~

Since there can be no cozy place
God devised womb in Mothers.

Since no first immunization can be synthesized
God created colostrums in Mothers.

Since no nutrient can be ever chemicalized
God sprung nectarine spring in Mother.

Since no freshener can be so allayer
God formulated corpusfreshener in Mothers.

Since no smile can be so captivating
God designed smiles in Mothers.

Since no toy gizmo ever give comfy
God crafted caresses in Mothers.

Since there is no better soother
God voxed berceuse in Mother.

Since no poet can portray attributes of human
God imaged unportrayable Mothers.

All hymn psalm
All leaves are paper
All sermons parables
All sages seers literati
Stumble bumble swag to
Portray greatness and
Brilliances of Mothers.

Holiest Whole
Wholesome Whole
You’re embodiment of.

Since God couldn’t be
Present everywhere
All Highest created Mothers.

I Ms. Nivedita
Try vainly
To portray You
Condone this self but.

She Lives For Herself

She is a good cook and a slave to tongue.
She makes good dishes; her spouse benefits.
As advised, she takes fruits and gives him too.
Now she takes garlic and gives it to him.
She thought he'd take it as her kindness.
He knows that it's for her sake that she does.
He knows that no one lives for the other
At their old age expecting their exit.

A Tribute to Mothers on ‘Mothers’ Day ‘09’

A mother keeps the human race going!
She gives the kid(s) the important training;
She does the baby’s cleaning and nursing;
She tends to children’s bathing and cleaning.

A mother is the crux in kid(s) growing!
And children into adults keep turning;
She does the child’s dressing and nail-paring;
She sings the songs when child goes off sleeping!

A mother keeps the home and does cooking;
About the children all, she keeps thinking;
Most days, she does the chores and dish-washing;
She hardly gets some time for own sleeping!

A mother loves to work and keep slogging!
Sometimes, in vain for help, she keeps begging;
Some modern moms take to even blogging;
A few spend much time at husbands, nagging!

A mother knows the art of good loving!
Some are good in punning, joking, rhyming;
A mother teaches kids at fine writing;
She spends the night in ‘about all’, dreaming!

A mother soul is fixed to kid(s) rearing!
To problems all, she gives a good hearing;
Nothing amiss can escape her seeing;
At times, she gives the kid(s) a good beating!

A mother tells kid(s) to be God-fearing!
Some mothers can be bold and ev’n daring;
Some mothers can’t stay without arguing;
Good mothers believe in giving / sharing!

A mother is a great human being!
When someone leaves, she keeps her hand(s) waving;
For love sometimes, some mothers keep craving;
The world somehow keeps most mothers crying!

Mothers Always Want Theirs Sons To Be Happy

mothers always want their sons to be happy
and so even if they marry someone
whom their fathers dislike
it is always them who settle for a compromise
and tell fathers to be flexible sometimes
not to hurt the hearts of sons

but sometimes when sons want something else
that only mothers understand
something that fathers cannot really compromise
mothers still compromise
and walk a mile farther
just to make their sons happy
and their sons leave them
to places that only mothers
by their loving hearts
know.

only mothers, yes only mothers,
and no one else.

The Lost Mothers...

not all mothers nurture
some have also lost their kind ways
their children neglected
others given away

nature has a way of creating
deviant mothers
those who prefer their men
rather than their children

those that slap innocence
those that sell those buds of beauty
before they ever bloom
those that lead them to perdition

but just the same
all are forgotten and forgiven
mothers too commit mistakes
humans as they are
too like everyone

happy mothers' day just the same
from your faithful and forgiving children

Some Mothers Son

Some mothers son lies in a field
Someone has killed some mothers son today
Head blown up by some soldiers gun
While all the mothers stand and wait
Some mothers son aint coming home today
Some mothers son aint got no grave
Two soldiers fighting in a trench
One soldier glances up to see the sun
And dreams of games he played when he was young
And then his friend calls out his name
It stops his dream and as he turns his head
A second later he is dead
Some mothers son lies in a field
Back home they put his picture in a frame
But all dead soldiers look the same
While all the parents stand and wait
To meet their children coming home from school
Some mothers son is lying dead
Somewhere someone is crying
Someone is trying to be so brave
But still the world keeps turning
Though all the children have gone away
Some mothers son lies in a field
But in his mothers eyes he looks the same
As on the day he went away
They put his picture on the wall
They put flowers in the picture frame
Some mothers memory remains

Second Helping Anyone?

Savor the fine flavor, they're the pride of Birmingham,
And if your down in Jackson, try them with some June Bug Jam.
Go ask Billy Bob or Bubba and they'll say 'Sweet Lord above,
It's Goat Guts and Garlic Grits that we do dearly love! '
Sweet Lacey Jo and Betsy Leigh
Spice them up nice in Tennessee
And they're served around the clock
A little south of Little Rock!
Oh, they claim that folks inhale 'em
In Charleston and Winston-Salem!
In Lexington and Atlanta
Children leave them out for Santa!
A Tradition that's very old, a Redneck specialty I'm told.
They're yummy in the tummy, wish they'd serve them at the Ritz...
Any rebel down in Dixie knows by the smell that it's...

Them good ole Goat Guts and them Garlic Grits!

A Mothers Love

(toshifumi hinata/bill wray/diana ross)
In a world of make believe
You can change all that you see
But in the world of reality
Youve taught me all that I need
Time like a river flows
Twisting and turning all the way
Life is an endless road
Youve been with me day by day
The only way I can thank you
Is to be the best that I can be
If we hold on together
Just you and me
A mothers love is forever
A mothers love is for free
It doesnt matter if youre good or bad
Shes there for whatever you need
In the world of fantasy
Hold on to your dreams
Open up your heart and see
All the love you need is me
Time like a river flows
Twisting and turning all the way
Life is an endless road
Youve been with me day by day
You are you and I am me
Youve made me all that I am
Heart to heart and hand to hand
Always there to understand
A mothers love is forever
A mothers love is for free
It doesnt matter if youre good or bad
Shes there for whatever you need
Doesnt matter if youre good or bad
Theres nothing like a mothers love
