Tribute to Mothers A cherished tribute to Mothers, on this a special day reserved for them. I am writing this tribute to let you all know that there is one that honors you on this day. I know you have given up a guarded treasure of virginity to become a mother. I know about all the sleepless nights you tended our illnesses and how you stayed awake till we were tucked into bed and safe. And how you gave up much of your freedom to tend to our wants and taunts. Oh, yes, Mothers, you're often imitated but no one can duplicate you, for you are very special ladies that no one can deny respect to, or discriminate against, because of national origin, race or color, religion or age. For once you're a mother you're a mother all your life. Many take you for better or worse and later divorce, but a mother you will still remain for life, regardless of strife. Yes, you dear ladies, this offspring remembers all of you on this special day, for you are all loved more today than yesterday and will be loved more tomorrow than today. For your special day, here's wishing you all a Happy Mother's Day! [This message has been edited by QjQ (04-19-2003 06:25 PM).] |

As a poet, and a mother, and a grandmother...I thank you. Let's see if we can keep this one at the top through May! |

QjQ, ~Welcome to Passions in Poetry~ So very glad you are with us. This is a beautifully written, and pardon me if I grab the moment and use it for all of it's worth. For, I cannot help but lovingly smile when I think how like God, mothers are...You captured that with this wonderful tribute. Thank you for posting. Looking forward to other of your work. Hugs and happy day... Pat ![]() ..without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.. "Desiderata" [This message has been edited by regards2you (04-20-2003 08:40 AM).] |

I'm not a mother but, this is a most wonderful tribute.... Bridgette ![]() "Somewhere, somehow, it should be possible to touch someone and never let go again. To hold someone, not for a moment but forever." Unknown |

A week away...all of the words should be recaptured...for lifetimes are forever too short.... and words, they can sometimes last through generations... |
