Mother's Calendar Poem by Darwin Henry Beuning
Mother's Calendar
My mother had a small calendar
With a page for each day of the year.
Each page would have a saying
To brighten one's day.
A few that I jotted down,
To be remembered this day -
People are certainly peculiar -
They want the front of the bus,
The back of the church,
And the middle of the road.
Before you have an argument with your boss,
Take a good look at both sides -
Their side and the outside.
The last word in an argument
Is what the wife says.
Anything a husband says after that,
Is the beginning of another argument.
Another well written poem that leaves the reader with more deeper questions about life and the human mind. Most of life is about how we react to one another. Pursuing life through the lens of grace. God has given us this time to show what we are made of. There are two sides to a coin. This poem would be an interesting one for group discussion. Thanks SIR, my brother and friend.
Very nice! I would love to have that calendar! I finally got my account activated. Poem Hunter finally sent me a password after more than a month of waiting. I have posted three poems that I would invite you to read, but they don't show up yet. Every time I post a new one I get this message: Your poems will be activated after they are approved by the system administrator.
Before you have an argument with your boss, Take a good look at both sides - Their side and the outside...., .so impressive and true. The inscription through a calendar is much appreciated. It is a great tribute to your mother. Thank you sir for sharing this gem.10
The picture of the calendar is a great addition to the poem. It appears to be a perpetual calendar that could be used year after year. You never have to throw it away or get a new calendar! Wonderful! Does it have a page for February 29?
02: 33 am,21 June 2020. My brother, Dave added the picture of my mother's calendar yesterday. He had saved it to this day. Thank you Dave.
A few witty sayings to read and remember. I gravitate towards the back of the church myself. Yes, give me a seat at the front of the bus, rather than the back. (the few times I do travel on a bus) .
