May You Be Blessed!

Happy Mother's Day!

Look at your hands, they touch with love,

The cheek on a little face,

They give, they heal, they cook and clean,

And all with gentle grace.

The work you do, each day seems long,

Some days seem never to end,

But one day soon you'll look and see,

No children around the bend.

You see they've grown and moved away,

Your sleep you may now enjoy,

No cries to wake you in the night,

No stepped on toys to annoy.

The time went fast, but something new has occured,

No reason to be sad,

When you look with pride and love at them,

At those babies your own baby had.

Take joy in the thought that the world goes on,

With days of sadness or fun,

A look at your wrinkled hands will tell,

Your job was very well done.

To each and every mom out there,

I wish you a Happy Day,

Whether young or old or in between,

May you be Blessed in every way.

A bit of poetry to brighten your Mother's Day,

by me!

Blessings!
