I’m glad to have a mother good, <br />Who nursed me well and gave good food; <br />Who taught me how to read and write, <br />And sang a lullaby each night. <br /> <br />Who showed me how to walk and run, <br />And played with me to have some fun; <br />Who kept me spick and span each day, <br />And told me stories like a Fay. <br /> <br />Who showed me how to pray to God, <br />And caned me sometimes as a rod; <br />Who reared me well with love and care, <br />And toiled all life for my welfare. <br /> <br />A lovely soul, one’s mother is, <br />Who shows the way to every bliss! <br />God bless my mother specially, <br />And keep her happy and healthy. <br /> <br />‘Wish you dear mom, a Happy Mother’s Day,2008! ’ <br />Copyright by Dr John Celes 5-1-2008<br /><br />Dr John Celes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/happy-mother-s-day-2008/
