Mother's Day A Poem
Mother’s Day comes once a year
Let us all hold ours so dear
Even if they are no longer here
We can remember them all year
There’s not a day that goes by
That I do not remember mine
Only having her for a few short years
She’s in my heart and always near
My Mothers favorite flower was
The delicate yellow daffodil
In honor of her, I made
Stained glass ones to gently sway
Hanging in a window array
Looking out into the garden
In the springtime, you can see
Daffodils I’ve planted
For her from me
I know that she did not want to die
But it was her time to say goodbye
She’s an angel looking down on me
Until we meet for an eternity

AUTHORHi Kelly, Thanks and Happy Mother's Day.
Hi Susan, thanks for sharing this beautiful poem. I think the best thing about Mother's Day is it helps me to slow down and appreciate what I have. Take care, Kelley
You're very welcome Susan!

aslanlight thank you so much.
What a beautiful poem! And I love the daffodil you made. I feel as though my grandma's watching over me so I empathise with that. Your hub makes me think that I should appreciate my mum more while she's alive.

I suspect that yellow daffodils are the appointed flower of heaven. Be well. This was a tender tribute.

Pamela thanks so much. I have a hub on here showing some of the other pieces of stained glass that I have done if you are interested in seeing them.
I liked this hub and am sorry to hear you lost your mother so young. I liked your stained glass daffodil. I make stained art also.

A very tender touching poem Susan. I'm so sorry you lost your mom.
Very pretty poem and hub Sue:)
I'm sorry you lost your mom so soon. I had mine for most of my life and I still wasn't ready to let her go.
Sweet Hub.
