Honoring Mothers-Happy Mother's Day





















A Mother’s  Love Never Dies

A mother’s love never dies
Her children are her prize
From the moment she lays eyes on you
Her love is faithful and true
There is nothing you can do
To make her stop loving you.
Through your ups and downs
She is always around
To encourage and uplift
That is her special gift
Her love is without condition
She is always willing to hear your petitions
She loves without fear or restraint
Her love never falters or faints.
She pours her wisdom into her children
Creating a perfect tapestry
and a timeless legacy
For generations to come
Her work is never done
Through time and space
A mother’s love will never be erased
Her love goes on and on
Long after she is gone,
Long after your last cries
Long after your last goodbyes
A mother’s love never dies

A Mothers at Heart

Though motherhood was not your call
You have been a mother to us all

Some bonds are formed before birth
Others are formed here on earth
The word Mother does not determine how deep the bond will be
Motherhood is birthed from a love that is given tenderly.
It’s the devotion and the time spent through the years.
It comes with the sharing of both joys and tears.
That is what makes one a mother at heart.
You loved, you taught someone how to trust,
You more than supplied their needs.
In your lifetime you planted many seeds
Giving and loving right from the start.
That’s what makes you a mother at heart.

A salute to those who have mothered children of family and friends, nieces, nephews, cousins and
neighborhood kids, giving of their time, their love and their wisdom.  Your devotion has not gone
unnoticed.
