Bonjour Alain!

What a wonderful tribute to all the mothers. You have some great images here.

I will have to snitch some for Mother Earth's Garden!

I am in a rush now, but will be back with more of a contribution.

Thank you for linking to my forum and Georgios' tribute thread.

Angel cuddles,

Sarah

Dearest Alain,

This thread is beautiful.

Instead to repeat the words what others already have said , I wished to bring you one of the best poems dedicated to mother, written by Sergey Yesenin. Surely, a lot has been lost in the translation (I know the poem both, in Russian original and an excellent Serbian translation, and this one found over Internet is not the best ... but cann`t find another) :

 

SERGEY YESENIN

 

    A LETTER TO MOTHER
Are you still alive, my old, my dear one?
I am on the feet. Hello! Hello!
May there always be above you, honey,
The amazing stream of evening glow.
I"ve been told that hiding your disquiet,
Worrying  about me a lot,
You go out  to the roadside every night,
Wearing your shabby overcoat.
In the evening  darkness, very often,
You conceive the same old scene of blood:
Kind of in a tavern fight  some ruffian
Plunged a Finnish knife into my heart.
Now calm down, mom! And don`t be dreary!
It`s a painful fiction through and through.
I`m not so bad a drunkard, really,
As to die without seeing you.
I`m your tender son  as ever, dear,
And the only thing I dream of now
Is to leave this dismal boredom here
And return to our little house. And how!
I`ll return in spring without warning
When the garden blossoms, white as snow.
Please don`t wake me early in the morning,
As you did before, eight years ago.
Don`t disturb my dreams that now have flown,
Don`t  perturb my vain and futile strife
For it`s much too early that I`ve known
Heavy loss and weariness in life.
Please don`t teach me how to say my prayers!
There is no way back to what is gone.
You`re my only joy, support and praise
And my only flare shining on.
Please  forget about your pain and fear,
and don`t  worry  over me a lot
Don`t go out  to the roadside, dear,
Wearing your shabby overcoat.
1924 Translated from the Russian by Alec Vagapov

 

I wish HAPPY MOTHER`S DAY TO ALL MOTHERS !

Love,

Branka

Dearest Alain,

Thank you for  honoring mothers !! WOW what a treat you have given us on all that we need to know about this day...indeed it is a special one. Cos MOTHERS are special people we need to treasure & respect.

A HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO ALL OUR ADLAND MOTHERS...YOU ARE SPECIAL...FEEL LOVED, COS YOU ARESmiley

I remember my mom with this........she passed on in 1998.



       Mom, always remembering you!

     [ A tribute on Mother's day]
                                
                                                       
                           
                            

                            Joyce Matilda Porter 

        
 
                 To the best Mom in the world,
                                  you had me when you were just a girl,
                 I know you loved me the best you could
                                  even when you didnt know how you should.

                 Through the years of toil and tears,
                                   our love for each other kept us near,
                 And as I grew I understood,
                                   why in the world  you were you !

                 Now that I'm a mom myself,
                                   all that you went thru makes all sense,
                  I  never made the mistakes you made,
                                   cos I had you to show me the way.

                    All the innocence and love you brought
                                   this one thing to me you have taught
                  To love from the purity of your heart,
                                   generosity abounding that set you apart.

                   I've learned much from your life,
                                   and now that your'e gone,
                   I just want to say I love you & miss you MOM !
