Portrait of A Mother


A halo that reflects a life of
wisdom, kindness,and caring.
Eyes that sparkle with pride
and show how much she believes in you.
Shoulders that have been slept on
and wept on and
carried a world or two.
Arms that never run out of hugs.
Hands that know
just when to hold on
and when to let go.
A mind filled with amazing things,
from fairy tales to family tails
and long-ago stories of you.
A smile that can jump right into your heart
and warm you faster than hot chocolate.
A heart of gold
that holds more love
than you can possibly imagine.

Hello BJ!

I wrote this for my Mother who beside my wife is my best friend. It is one of the highest ranking poems on SHE LOVES GOD.COM!

Within your womb I am surrounded,

by a love that will always be there

And the next nine months I will be part of you,

everything we will share

The soft and tender caresses,

I can feel through your ever soft skin

With your patience and understanding,

it will be your heart I need to win

I will be your little miracle,

and this poem is just for you

Never thought I would be thinking this,

after all we are going through

I know I will be a happy child,

and thank God every single day

I thank him for being blessed,

in every single way

You know I will be an easy baby,

as you will hold me for a while

Every day will pass with giggles,

and you will love my little smile

I know you both have waited,

over the long and painful years

And maybe thought it would never happen,

and kept on hoping through the tears

I wish you both lifelong happiness,

and perfect parental bliss

and I hope to grow up like you and Father,

I could not hope for more than this.

Hi BJ

AND GRANDMA'S TOO...

"While we honor all our mothers
with words of love and praise.
While we tell about their goodness
and their kind and loving ways.
We should also think of Grandma,
she's a mother too, you see....
For she mothered my dear mother
as my mother mothers me."

Hi Evalyn

Hi thanks for sharing this poem. And yes, this poem is so true. Grandmother's are also special Mothers too. So let's not forget Grandmother's on Mother's Day. Thank you for reminding us.
