Happy Birthday Mum

Chanced upon my first effort of a poem, I wrote in the distant past. It coincides with mums birthday.


Born in 28

still looks great

hope I have this family trait

mother of nine

always looks divine

things you do

are so sublime

self - never time to mind -

always so gentle and kind

I’m glad you’re the sweet

mother of mine

when I have misgivings

always unconditionally forgiving

sees life’s for living

never complain

about pains

all the while

has beautiful

SMILE!!!

Andy, your mum's an absolute peach my friend -- you, your dad, and eight sibs are a lucky lot -- which by your poem, I can see that you are already aware -- a big thumbs up for your poem, and a bigger thumbs up for your mum -- may peace and love be with you -- Jon Michael

I truly believe this is one of your best, Andy: that's often the case with writers: what moves them to put pen to paper initially is so powerful that it creates a very pure work, as here. Fab picture, too. You have brought the two together to paint for us the very vivid picture of the special person your Mother is, possessing all those qualities of womanhood that makes us proud to be feminine. If a son of mine were to present me with such beauty, I would be overwhelmed that I could have been such a person or could have done such a good job! She's an Olympian Gold medallist in the Motherhood-stakes! And NINE.... N I N E.... times over! Makes me feel faint... !! xxxx HAPPY BIRTHDAY GORGEOUS!!!

Oh boy, you sure make me gently miss my mom even more with this lovely tribute. She's beautiful just as you say. Our mother's birthdays are very close together, and seeing yours there smiling and sweetly cuddling...well, it's good medicine for my soul, that's what. Thank you. --Charlie
