A poem for all mothers on mother’s day

For all the mothers
both acknowledged and not,
I write you this poem,
as my only shot,

My shot to tell you this,
in tones that speak true thanks:
that I appreciate the good you all bring,
all mothers of all ranks.

Spend your day with love,
with joy, family and smiles,
because motherhood is a career you enjoy,
in steps of many miles.

You carry a heavy burden,
though it’s not a burden at all,
unless you consider our fights,
our cries and our falls.

But you’re the only true fit one
to carry us through the years.
Without you where would we be?
Unborn or in a puddle of tears.

So I thank all mothers
who work
So
So
So
hard,

who love us with all their energy,
in every beat of their heart.
