1. Super Mom

Mom, you’re a wonderful mother,
So gentle, yet so strong.
The many ways you show you care
Always make me feel I belong.

You’re patient when I’m foolish;
You give guidance when I ask;
It seems you can do most anything;
You’re the master of every task.

You’re a dependable source of comfort;
You’re my cushion when I fall.
You help in times of trouble;
You support me whenever I call.

I love you more than you know;
You have my total respect.
If I had my choice of mothers,
You’d be the one I’d select!

By Joanna Fuchs

2. Guiding Light Mom

Mom, from the time I was really young,
I realized I had someone…you,
who always cared,
who always protected me,
who was always there for me no matter what.
You taught me right from wrong,
and pushed me to do the right thing,
even when it was hard to do.
You took care of me when I was sick,
and your love helped make me well.
You had rules,
and I learned that when I obeyed them,
my life was simpler, better, richer.
You were and are
the guiding light of my life.
My heart is filled with love for you,
my teacher, my friend, my mother.

By Karl and Joanna Fuchs

3. A Thousand Thanks

Mother’s Day brings to mind
The thousands of things you did for me
that helped make me happier,
stronger and wiser,
because I had you as a role model.

I’m grateful for all the times
you healed my hurts
and calmed my fears,
so that I could face the world
feeling safe and secure.

I’m thankful for all you showed me
about how to love and give–
lessons that now bring
so many blessings to me
each and every day.

Your sacrifices and unselfishness
did not go unnoticed, Mom.
I admire you, I respect you,
I love you.
And I’m so glad you’re my mother!

Happy Mother’s Day!

By Joanna Fuchs

4. A Great Mother

As I look upon my children,
I wish that I will be,
As great a mother to my children
as my mother was to me

She always knows what to say,
and what I need to hear
She always told me how it was,
so simple and so clear.

As mother and daughters do,
we’d argue and we’d fight
But though the tears and drama
I love her with all my might.

She looked the same every day
I remember from when I’m young
A few lines and wrinkles there,
but still my beautiful mum.

She’s always been so wise,
she’s always been so strong
She’s always been so stubborn
and occasionally she’s wrong

My mum is sure not perfect,
as I sure I am not much too
But mum’s know you inside out
and advised you as you grew.

Now days have come and time has passed
where mum is growing weak
And we don’t know the words to help
and the right words to speak

For losing mum’s there is no book
or instructions what to say
I hope I say the words right
to help her on her way.

For I love you mum, you are my world
I thank you with all my heart
I don’t know why you have to go
and why we have to part

But know you’re loved and cherished
and we’re all here for you
And know you’re going to a place
where people love you too

By Kerry Conn

5. A Poem for Mom

You are the sunlight in my day,
You are the moon I see far away.
You are the tree I lean upon,
You are the one that makes troubles be gone.
You are the one who taught me life,
How not to fight, and what is right.
You are the words inside my song,
You are my love, my life, my mom.
You are the one who cares for me,
You are the eyes that help me see.
You are the one who knows me best,
When it’s time to have fun and time to rest.
You are the one who has helped me dream,
You hear my heart and you hear my screams.
Afraid of life but looking for love,
I’m blessed for God sent you from above.
You are my friend, my heart, my soul
You are the greatest friend I know.
You are the words inside my song,
You are my love, my life, my Mom.

By Champagne S. Baker

6. Mama

I was eight,
My cousin was eighteen.
He called his mother Mom
“When will I be old enough,”
I asked
“to call my mama Mom?”

Mom seemed a privilege
to be earned with age.
Eight year olds had to say
“mama” or “mommy”

I experimented with Mom
such a deliciously Western term.
I addressed birthday cards to Mom
and mother’s day cards to Mom

She didn’t seem to mind
so I started calling mama Mom

But the novelty wore off
and I got sick of Mom and of mom
And I wanted nothing to do with mom
so I wouldn’t even call her Mom

She was Alia.
I called her by her first name
because I resented Mom and mom for loving me.

I called her Alia
She called me Daughter
a forceful reminder of the umbilical cord.

Then I went away to university,
over the Atlantic Ocean
a 14 hour plane ride away.

And I wouldn’t call at all.
I wouldn’t call to call her “mama” or “mommy” or Mom or even Alia.

But she would call
And she would call me Daughter
or “habibti” or “my sunshine.”

And I didn’t want to hear it.
I was eighteen
and I didn’t need Mom.

I was gone eight months
and I didn’t miss Mom
I didn’t miss the Middle East
I didn’t want to be home

I think She hated me for a while.

Then I was back in Toronto
University got hard
And I got tired
And I couldn’t sleep
And friends proved false
And I got fat.

So I called Alia
And she stayed on skype with me, singing
Arabic Nursery Rhymes
until she saw I was asleep

And Mom watched me sleep.

But “mommy”
kept the laptop on all night
In case I woke up scared
and needed to call out for her
from across the Atlantic.

And “mama”
is at home
waiting for me
with a hug

And I just want to go back
and do it over
so I could take back every day
that I didn’t call her
mommy.

By Nora Agha

7. Thank You Mom

Thank you Mom,
For everything you have done,
Thank you Mom,
For making each day so much fun.

Thank you Mom,
For showing me the way,
Thank you Mom,
For smiling every day.

Thank you Mom,
For always being there,
Thank you Mom,
For showing how much you care.

Thank you Mom,
You’re the very best,
Thank you Mom,
Because you’re none like the rest.

So this day is so special,
Because you’re so special too,
Just remember one thing,
That I do love you.

By Debbie Bongiovanni

8. Wonderful Mother

God made a wonderful mother,
A mother who never grows old;

He made her smile of the sunshine,
And He moulded her heart of pure gold;

In her eyes He placed bright shining stars,
In her cheeks fair roses you see;

God made a wonderful mother,
And He gave that dear mother to me.

By Pat O’Reilly

9. Wife and Mother

I am a wife and mother
Tried and True
I will go to the end of the earth
Just to see you through

I am a wife and mother
With righteousness I stand
No matter what your worries or problems
I will always b there to lend a hand

I am a wife and mother
With a world of love in my heart
Words of encouragement
From my lips will only part

I am a wife and mother
With a beautiful family to raise
All I ask for from you
Is a little love and praise

I am a wife and mother
Molded from Gods glorious hands above
To guide you in this life
And to cover you with the greatest love

By Tammy Sepulveda

10. When The Lord Made Our Mum

Lord, You knew what you were doing,
when you made our Mum.
You knew you’d reached perfection,
and could never make another one.

You had made a one off model.
So you threw away the mold.
You gave Mum the patients of a Saint,
and a heart of pure gold!

You gave her eyes that never looked
for fault in anyone.
You filled her soul with so much love,
and compassion by the ton.

You gave her sympathetic ears,
and such understanding too.
She would always lend a helping hand,
if there was something she could do.

Friends can come, and friends can go.
But there was no friend like our Mum.
Lord. you must have felt so proud,
when you saw just what you’d done.

To some she might have seemed naive.
But those who love her know her worth.
For Lord. When you created Mum,
you placed an Angel on this earth.

By Richard John Scarr

11. To My Other Mother

You are the other Mother I received,
the day I wed your son
And I want to thank you Mom,
for the loving things you’ve done.

You’ve given me a gracious Man,
with whom I share my life
You are his lovely Mother,
and I his lucky Wife.

You used to pat his little head,
and now I hold his hand
You raised in love a little boy,
and then gave me the Man.

By Judy Nilson

12. Two Mothers Remembered

I had two Mothers – two Mothers I claim
Two different people, yet with the same name.
Two separate women, diverse by design,
But I loved them both because they were mine.

The first was the Mother who carried me here,
Gave birth and nurtured and launched my career.
She was the one whose features I bear,
Complete with the facial expressions I wear.

She gave her love, which follows me yet,
Along with the examples in life she set.
As I got older, she somehow younger grew,
And we’d laugh as just Mothers and daughters do.

But then came the time that her mind clouded so,
And I sensed that the Mother I knew would soon go.
So quickly she changed and turned into the other,
A stranger who dressed in the clothes of my Mother.

Oh, she looked the same, at least at arm’s length,
But now she was the child and I was her strength.
We’d come full circle, we women three,
My Mother the first, the second and me.

And if my own children should come to a day,
When a new Mother comes and the old goes away,
I’d ask of them nothing that I didn’t do.
Love both of your Mothers as both loved you.

By Joann Snow Duncanson

13. Tribute to Mother

You painted no Madonnas
on chapel walls in Rome
But with a touch divine
you lived one in your home

You wrote no lofty poems
that critics counted art
But with a nobler vision
you lived them in your heart

You carved no shapeless marble
into some high soul design
But with a finer sculpture
you shaped this soul of mine

You built no great cathedrals
that centuries applaud
But with a grace exquisite
your life cathedraled

God Had I the gift of Raphael
or that of Michelangelo
Oh, what a rare Madonna
my mother’s life would show

By Frances Johansan

14. My Mother’s Heart

My mother’s heart is so tender
and her face has a gentle glow
She’s my friend and my inspiration,
she’s the sweetest mom I know.

She gives herself so freely
to those who share her life
She clearly loves her children
with the love that comes from Christ

Her eyes are full of compassion
her voice is soft and mild
She lives for helping others,
leaving “heartprints” all the while.

My mother’s love is special
and grows sweeter with every year
God blessed me with an angel;
she’s my precious mother, dear.

By Jill Lemming

15. The Meanest Mother

I have the meanest mother,
She makes me obey her rule,
I must eat all my breakfast,
Before leaving Home of school.

I have the meanest mother,
Sometimes her rule do hurt,
I have to eat all of my vegies,
Before I can have dessert.

I have the meanest mother,
Who sometimes I try to fool,
Pretending I don’t feel well,
Still makes me go to school

I have the meanest mother,
Who makes me do my chores,
If I don’t clean my bedroom
Then I can’t play out of doors.

I thought I had the meanest mother,
But the opposite was quite true,
I realized how much she loved me,
Guided and praised me when due

A rule my mother taught me,
A standard for all mothers,
Was as I wanted to be treated,
The same I should treat others.

My friend had a nicer mother,
An illusion it turned out to be,
He was able to do what he liked,
Now he’s in jail – not free.

By Vivien Wade
