Mom
I know it wasn't easy,
A mom raising four.
The help you had was sparse,
I'm sure you longed for more.
You always worked so hard,
to see our needs were met.
If you ever did complain,
I haven't heard it yet.
Thank you for the childhood days,
I cherish in my heart.
Memories I hold near and dear,
never will they part.
I know you've been through hell,
the sorrows you have seen.
But trust you will keep faith in God,
Let nothing come between.
Mom you were not perfect.
Who in this world could be?
But thanks for being the Mom you were,
because you made me - me.

Poetry: On mothers
by Bob Mundle
Mother's cardigan.
My mother's cardigan
Still hangs on the back of her chair,
A fluffy pink confection
Of kitten-soft mohair,
Take me back
Back to a time
Life was different
Things were simple
Surrounded by love
And adoration for each other
We stuck close
And
The Morning Light
There's a place in the morning light,
a moment...there just for awhile,
when the newness of the day shines
Mother
I left behind what created me,
She who held me in her arms
And whispered to me as a bairn.
I left behind what made me

My Mother a Class Act
Dinner setting, quite frankly I never seen so many
Bursting the pyramid into pepper, tonight's meal
