A Mother’s Day for Every Hear

Today, some carry flowers home,
While others face the world alone.
Some hear “I love you” through the phone,
Some speak to pictures carved in stone.

Some mothers sit at kitchen chairs,
Still braiding love through daily cares.
While some are only found in dreams,
Or hidden softly in a field of Greens.

if your mother’s here within your hands,
Go hug her close while time still stands.
Because one day you’ll miss her voice,
Family Dinners your Time Rejoice.

You’ll miss the little things she’d do,
The quiet love that carried you.
The random calls, the worrying too,
The “Drive safe home, I love you.”

For those whose mothers passed away,
I know this day can feel so gray.
A celebration to the rest,
Can reopen holes inside your chest.

Yet mothers never truly leave,
They live in every breath we breathe.
In every strength they helped us find,
They leave their fingerprints forever behind.

So light a candle. Say their name.
Love after loss still burns the same.
And if your mother’s here today,
Don’t let that blessing fade away.

Sit a little longer there,
Listen close, show you care.
Because the hardest truth we learn
Is someday love in person will not return.

And all the ones who’ve said goodbye,
Would give the stars, the earth, the sky…
Just for one more Mother’s Day,
To hear their mom,
Their voice, your name to say.
