MOTHER'S DAY BACK TO BACK POEM

THE FIRST ONE FROM MY FREN K.NISA'

I first saw light
my eyes blinked and opened
within your womb
In pain and distress
I entered life
You touched death
when I took my first breath
So small
I could lie, squirming and stretching
upon your gentle hand
Through tiredness and concern
I grew and learned
I found safety on your lap
a love that never fades
Arms outstretched
to collect broken fallen life
a haven
eagerly awaited
A lap, on which to rest
as I found comfort in you
Now I close my eyes
and feel your loving arms
hold me tight
Every word, kiss and kindness
is never lost
it shines in my being
and reflects onto mine..
and to everyone
It is not usually until we grow up and have children of our own that we truly appreciate the love and nurturing we received at the hands of our mothers. With all this in mind, i have dedicated this poem to my mum who contributed so much to what I am today, and who also provided many fields for my learning
I LOVE U MOM , MY AMAZING LADY =)

THE SECOND ONE FROM MY FRAN MRS NOVAK

When you were 8 years old, your mom handed you an ice cream. You thanked her by dripping it all over your lap.

When you were 9 years old, she paid for piano lessons. You thanked her by never even bothering to practice.

When you were 10 years old she drove you all day, from soccer to football to one birthday party after another. You thanked her by jumping out of the car and never looking back.

When you were 11 years old, she took you and your friends to the movies. You thanked her by asking to sit in a different row.

When you were 12 years old, she warned you not to watch certain TV shows. You thanked her by waiting until she left the house.

When you were 13, she suggested a haircut that was becoming. You thanked her by telling her she had no taste.

When you were 14, she paid for a month away at summer camp. You thanked her by forgetting to write a single letter.

When you were 15, she came home from work, looking for a hug. You thanked her by having your bedroom door locked.

When you were 16, she taught you how to drive her car. You thanked her by taking it every chance you could.

When you were 17, she was expecting an important call. You thanked her by being on the phone all night.

When you were 18, she cried at your high school graduation . You thanked her by staying out partying until dawn.

When you were 19, she paid for your college tuition, drove you to campus carried your bags. You thanked her by saying good-bye outside the dorm so you wouldn’t be embarrassed in front of your friends.

When you were 25, she helped to pay for your wedding, and she cried and told you how deeply she loved you. You thanked her by moving halfway across the country.

When you were 50, she fell ill and needed you to take care of her. You thanked her by reading about the burden parents become to their children. And then, one day, she quietly died.

And everything you never did came crashing down like thunder on YOUR HEART…


HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL MOM IN THE WORLD.. PEACE YOO
