Two Mother's Day Poems
1
Mother's Day

On this second Sunday in May,
I celebrate Mother's Day,
with a hot cup of Caf' Mocha
made with Rich Chocolate Ovaltine'
and remember Mama's smile
the first time
I made it for her.

On this second Sunday in May,
I celebrate Mother's Day,
I open my prayer book to read
a prayer for the departed
and remember Mama's favorite prayer
was the one for protection
that she read
before going to work each day
at the old Showboat.

On this second Sunday in May,
I celebrate Mother's Day,
by calling my sister-in-laws
to wish them
a Happy Mother's Day.

My Memories of Mother's Day

I look back across the years
of memories
that bring joy and tears:
Mama is now in paradise
sitting beside the Tree of Life,
where she is celebrating Mother's Day
with those who proceeded her.

I look back across the years
of memories
that bring joy and tears:
I smile
remembering the things we used to do
on Mother's Day
and then I cry.

I look back across the years
of memories
that bring joy and tears:
I miss Mama so much,
and yet,
I cannot cry
when I remember her gentle touch
as she wiped the tears
from my eyes
or her melodic voice
singing me to sleep with lullabies.
