My mother never fed
Me leftovers. She spent
A lot of time fixing the
Best meals I will always
Remember. She’s gone
Now, but her meals are
Not the only loving
Things I’ll remember
About her.

Tough
She’s 98 years old and
Still with it. Frail but with
A smile on her face. Like
So many people her age,
She fell and broke her
Hip. After an hour and a
Half surgery, she made it
Just fine. And Mom’s still
With us, a tough cookie.
Mothers
Everyone has a mother. They
Brought us up, with or without
A father. They took care of us,
Served as an example. They
Tried and they were not perfect.
They had their flaws, but don’t
We all? In their own personal
Way they expressed their love
For us. There is no one like a
Mother. Happy Mother’s Day!
Mom
Mom’s been around for
A long time. At 98 years
Young, she’s sharp as a
Tack, soft spoken. And
Mom is a little hard of
Hearing. Her love for
Her family and in-laws
Is real and returned
Back to Mom. It’s easy
To make her laugh.
And her gentle nature
Wins everyone over.
We want Mom to last
Forever.
Behind the Scenes
Lots of things go on behind
The scenes that never get
Noticed
A mother taking care of her
Newborn baby, a nurse caring
For an elderly patient who is
Unable to do anything on
Their own, a teacher spending
Time tutoring a student, a minister
Comforting a troubled young couple
–these are the behind the scenes angels
Fairies
One morning a little boy
Was playing in his front
Yard and decided to wander
Around through his mother’s
Rose bushes
A little person with wings
Flew in front of him and
Was joined by a few other
Of the tiny fairies
They did not seem to be
Afraid of him and he was not
Afraid of them watching them
Gracefully fly among the roses
