WHAT IS A MOTHER

A mother is a doormat and a dishwasher,
She is a washing machine and button sewer onner.
She is the cook, the baker and the carpenter.
She is the doctor, the mediator and the referee.
She is the constant, the run too, the always there.
She can never get sick,
She can never take leave.
She is always a wife,
She is a mother for life.
She never gets a holiday
And doesn’t get to break away.
She just wants to be loved
The way she loves her own.
“Thank you mom” or “I love you”
Is all she wants to hear
These words would mean the world to her.
When whispered in her ear.
She wants to be remembered,
To know that she is loved.
There are no gifts throughout the world
To replace the gift of love.
A handmade card, a tender word,
A hug from dad sometimes.
A simple “I understand”
When tears come unexplained.
A gentle touch, a quiet word
Can always make her day.
If you have a mom, remember her today
Don’t wait for mothers day
To say what you want to say
She needs to hear it often,
Or she will think she has failed.
She has a heart big and tender
Even though she looks tough as nails
