Mama

It's pretty sad people need a special day
to tell you that you're loved
or acknowledge that you are the One
who bears the gifts from God above
for every child who walks the Earth
was brought forth from your womb
and held close in your loving arms
from the cradle to the tomb
but since it's so I want you to know
I wish you peace and happiness
and nothing I could ever bring
could repay you for your gift.
So to you I pledge my heart
my promise to be true
that each step I take upon your sacred Earth
I do in remembrance of you.

Sent with the self-less love you teach
and all my hugs and kisses too!

I Thank You always for my life...

All my best to all the mothers here at Pip!

Yo Joe,

I like this one.  My mother was great. She  was all I had, and I was all she had.  

She was no angel, and she used to sleep around.  I think that's why we were always so close.

Oh, Joe! God bless you for honouring our Mother Earth and all mortal mothers!

What a lovely poem of grace from your loving, appreciative heart.

Your mother is fortunate to have such a devoted 'sun'. ~ and it would appear that she is highly deserving to be blessed with you!

Hugs with love,
Linda

We are free to declare our Love everyday, but it is not sad to have one special day on which to ponder and to express the depth of our feelings of gratitude.

I loved your words.

Thank you and my best wishes to all the Pip Mothers.

Love,
Margherita
