She makes you feel you are never alone

She has a very special way of cheering up a day

And looks upon your problems as her own





She shares your every dream and adds to your esteem

She helps you and does favors, big and small

She cares with all her heart she`s loved you from the start

A mother is the dearest friend of all.

Happy Mothers Day

Mother's Day

a time for warm thoughts

and fond memories,

for expressing

the feelings and words

that often go unspoken,

for letting

those special people

in our lives know

that they are loved

and appreciated -

always.













Mother's Day







Let every day be Mother's Day!

Make roses grow along her way

And beauty everywhere.

Oh, never let her eyes be wet

With tears of sorrow or regret,

And never cease to care!

Come, grown up children, and rejoice

That you can hear your mother's voice!





A day for her! For you she gave

Long years of love and service brave;

For you her youth was spent.

There was no weight of hurt or care

Too heavy for her strength to bear;

She followed where you went;

Her courage and her love sublime

You could depend on all the time.





No day or night she set apart

On which to open wide her heart

And welcome you within;

There was no hour you would not be

First in her thought and memory,

Though you were black as sin!

Though skies were gray or skies were blue

Not once has she forgotten you.





Let every day be Mother's Day!

With love and roses strew her way,

And smiles of joy and pride!

Come, grown up children, to the knee

Where long ago you used to be

And never turn aside;

Oh, never let her eyes grow wet

With tears, because her babes forget.





Edgar Albert Guest (1881-1959
