Anna Jarvis began the quest
To establish a Mother's Day.
She gave the effort all her best.
1914, the U.S.A.
Proclaimed a day in May as so.
But over time Anna became
Disillusioned with the cash flow,
Thought cards and candy such a shame
With all the profiteering stuff.
A Mother should not be on sale.
Love from the heart should be enough.
But Anna's take did not prevail.
Mother's Day brings in big bucks - yes!
Anna Jarvis died penniless.
