MOTHERS’ DAY - A Poem Dedicated To All Mothers by todaynewsreview: 9:56am On Mar 31, 2019 |
MOTHERS’ DAY By Jeremiah Onoriode Atomre Waking up that morning was just like every other day Ooh! Ooh! Were the responses of my other siblings Time for morning devotion As she led the way After some extra rest Decided to take my bathe Wao! Today really is mother’s day Sorry, women’s day But whose day is this really? As I begin to ponder over Who really owns the day? Is it for all women or only for mothers? Even as we headed for the day’s service Parents were seen with their children Leading them were the mothers But which woman would never wanted to be a mother Grieve in my heart As I pondered on this issue Oh God! Make them all mothers The faith of the barren widows sounded Oh! Can she for once be a mother? Oh! Others who after many years of marriage Can they be mothers too? All mothers, oh! All women Seen very happy and excited As their God’s children present them gifts Will she accept one of these as her? No! Yes! No! Yes! No! No! Yes! Yes! Even as she returns home None of the God sons or daughters Alone she went to a lonely home Alone she went to the hands of him “God’s time is the best” As he consoles her But what society can do without them? I don’t think there’s any Children, pupils, students and even husbands Depends on these women for most things Could it be for all things? Only time and times can tell She even borrowed when the going gets tough Always there for the children upkeep Even in the midst of none Always sought for a way out School fees, good clothes, good foods, better houses Were her plight When one is sick, hungry, accused or even arrested She is always there Wonder what life would have been without them Oh God! Bless our mothers Oh! Our women Oh God! Bless all women Oh God! Bless us all. 15 Likes 1 Share |

MY MOTHER Who sat and watched my infant head When sleeping on my cradle bed, And tears of sweet affection shed? My Mother. When pain and sickness made me cry, Who gazed upon my heavy eye, And wept for fear that I should die? My Mother. Who taught my infant lips to pray And love God’s holy book and day, And walk in wisdom’s pleasant way? My Mother. And can I ever cease to be Affectionate and kind to thee, Who wast so very kind to me, My Mother? Ah, no! the thought I cannot bear, And if God please my life to spare I hope I shall reward thy care, My Mother. When thou art feeble, old and grey, My healthy arm shall be thy stay, And I will soothe thy pains away, My Mother. by Ann Taylor Happy 1st Mother's day of the year to every mother out there! 12 Likes |

The writer isn’t a good poet. This poem is Very bland. Sounds more like prose rolled into verses. Poetry should be written with lofty words to create aesthetic appeal. Rhythm and poetic devices shouldnt be lacking as it is in this poem. Happy Mother’s Day though! |

OK offpoint is not a poet, but I love my stuffs original . She sacrifices her beauty for my sakes, She took the longest and most tremendous journey for 9 months all for my sakes, She experienced the most excruciating pain known to humanity for my sake, Even though I nearly ended her life in childbirth, the moment she saw me she showed me unconditional love. She risked her career for me, love me when I had nothing... Taught me how to talk when I couldn't speak, Taught me how walk, when I couldn't crawled, Guide my every step when I was blind, Fed me when I never even knew what food was, Clothes me when I was naked, Nursed me when I was sick, Sacrifices her sleeps for mine sakes, How can I ever repay you mama? Will I ever repay you mama? I know you'll be proud of a man you made out of me mama... Silver nor gold do I ever to give to you, but I'll be ungrateful scum if I don't take a second to say this 3 words to you.... Thank You Mom. |

Kudos to you for the correct use of the apostrophe on the mother. MOTHERS' DAY and not MOTHER'S DAY. 1 Like |
