Happy Mother's Day!

Wishing all the wonderful Mommies I know & love a very

Happy Mother's Day!

~~~~~

Mothers are the gardeners

Of wind-blown wild flowers.

They water them with happy tears,

Happy with them many years.

Mothers are the place where love

Emerges from the earth,

And happiness rings out like bells

In honor of our birth.
Mothers are the sun that lights

For life our inner sky,

So we may know that we are loved

And need not question why.
Mothers are the moon that shines

Upon our black despair,

So even when we weep, we know

That someone's always there.
Mothers are the place that we call home.

On them we rest our heads and close our eyes.

There's no one else who grants the same soft peace,

Happiness, contentment, sweet release,

Erasing nighttime tears with lullabies,

Restoring the bright sun that makes us bloom.
