Happy Mother's Day Poem by Denis Martindale

It's Mother's Day! It's here again!
My word, she will be glad!
So, come on, all you gentlemen,
Who celebrate with Dad!
It's time to cherish who she is
And what she means to you!
Perhaps with just a little kiss
With precious gifts brand new!

They may not be expensive rings
Or necklaces of gold,
But mothers have their own heartstrings
Of which you can take hold.
So give them precious greeting cards
With messages of joy
And sentiments of high regards
From every girl and boy.

For who are we without the ones
Who laboured long ago?
They granted life to smiling sons
And daughters as we know.
May God bless Mothers near or far!
God knows they need His love!
They need not wish upon a star,
Just pray to Him above...
