Mother’s Day poems: What to write in a card?

Only One Mother - George Cooper

Hundreds of stars in the pretty sky, Hundreds of shells on the shore together, Hundreds of birds that go singing by, Hundreds of lambs in the sunny weather.  Hundreds ofdewdrops to greet the dawn, Hundreds of bees in the purple clover, Hundreds of butterflies on the lawn, But only one mother the wide world over.

You have told me all the things I need to hear before I knew I needed to hear them To be unafraid Of all the things I use to fear Before I knew I shouldn't fear them.

M-O-T-H-E-R - Howard Johnson

"M" is for the million things she gave me, "O" means only that she's growing old, "T" is for the tears she shed to save me, "H" is for her heart of purest gold, "E" is for her eyes, with love-light shining, "R" means right, and right she'll always be, Put them all together, they spell "MOTHER," A word that means the world to me.

Land - Nayyirah Waheed

Untitled Poem - Sarah Malin

Your arms were always open when I needed a hug.  Your heart understood when I needed a friend.

Never Enough - Reanna Almeida

Sometimes I know the words to say to give thanks for all you've done, but then they fly up and away as quickly as they come.

How could I possibly thank you enough, the one who makes me whole, the one to whom I owe my life, the forming of my soul.

The one who tucked me in at night, the one who stopped my crying, the one who was the expert at picking up when I was lying.
