Mothers sacrifice so much. It’s very important that we honor our mothers always and find ways to make them happy.
Since Mother’s Day is coming up, I wrote this poem for my mother. If you’re looking to give a poem to your mother then you can use bits and pieces of the poem I wrote for mine and rearrange it to make it your own.
← This is a printable version of the poem so you can use it as is too. Hope you like it

I remember all the things
You did for me as a child
Every time you looked at me
Wiped my tears and smiled
When it was time to go to sleep
You’d come and tuck me in
And play the “buzzing bee game”
Tickling my chin.
When performing the school play
I found you in the crowd
I saw the love – your eyes sparkled
I knew I’d made you proud.
You were always so caring
And also so alert
Protecting and advising
So that I wouldn’t get hurt
Thank you for every time
you tried and helped me rise
For every time you gave me hugs
And sang me lullabies
Raising me wasn’t easy
It must have been so tough
To put up with all my stubbornness
I can’t thank you quite enough
When the waves of life hit hard
I was tempted to do wrong,
Your wisdom grounded me
Your example kept me strong.
All the things you’ve sacrificed
Demonstrate your love
You’re my constant inspiration
You’re my gift from up Above.

I love the poem and the photos. What a creative idea. I love poetry and think it’s a wonderfully creative way to express yourself. And you did that so well. Bravo!
Roy Montero
Happy Mother’s Day to you Eren!
Your poem is so beautiful that I’m sending not only my mom here to read it but all my friends’ moms as well.
I’m sure your mom (waves at Kathleen) is extremely proud of you Eren because I know how much you love her and appreciate her.
And mom, you’ve done a really, really great job raising Eren because she is someone my wife, Sharon, and I are PROUD to call our FRIEND!!!
Happy Mother’s Day Eren and Kathleen!
Your Friend,
Roy
Robert Nelson
Great poem. will pass on the URL
Darrell Baudoin
I love your poem very much Eren! That’s a nice pic of your peeps too.
Karla Bond
What a beautiful poem and look at your parents. What a happy looking couple. Hope you have a great Mother’s Day!
Sire
That’s a beautiful poem Eren and shows how much your mother means to you. I’ve always felt it strange that we don’t always appreciate our parents until we have kids of our own, only then do we realize how much they had to go through.
Elise Berenger
Such lovely words Eren, sadly this Mother’s Day I don’t have my Mom to hold and hug, but I know she knows that I love her and thank her for all she did for me.
She’s here in spirit!
God gave her to me and now He has called her to Him.

@Girish – I just created a printable version of the poem so that it’s easy to just print out and give to your mother. This poem was written for my mother but it can be used for all mothers who sacrifice and love their children above their own desires as my mom did.
@Kelli – Hi there! I’m happy you enjoyed it. You have an awesome Mother’s day too! Blessings sis.
@Debbie – When I saw these images I just felt the creativity come out. I have been wanting to write a poem for my mom and needed the most moving images to combine with the words so that I could express my love for her. By the way I just wanted to say that your blog is so deep and creative. I just love it.
@Roy – Mother’s Day is very special. Mom is my treasure for sure. My dad would always say to me when I was a kid: the most important person on earth is your mother.
@Robert – Thanks. Hope your sis likes the poem
@Darrell – Yes I wanted to find a picture that would blend with all the other images. I’m happy you liked it.
@Karla – They are wonderful and generous people. You have a great Mother’s Day too
@Sire – Very true that we don’t quite know what they have gone through until we ourselves are parents. I know my mom had a lot of work with me. But she just kept at it. If I can be half the mother to my kids that my mom was to me and my brother then I can say I have achieved a lot!
@Elise – I know of the recent pain you went through of losing your mother. I am so thankful to God for giving you the chance of being there with her in those last moments. I know she is now with our glorious God feeling total joy and happiness in His Presence. I can only imagine what heaven will be like with the colors, the music… the beauty of our Creator.
I also want to say → I really admire your strength as a mom to 7 children. You are an awesome mom and I’m privileged to call you my friend. Love you girl!
Blessings ♥,

Eren,
That is a very touching poem! And I can see the meaning it has for you, encapsulated in the individual and joint experiences between mother and daughter.
Thank you very much for sharing, and I love that card idea.

@Mikkel – Good idea… Or you can just print it out and give it to her now because Mother’s Day is every day
