Poetic Bloomings Mother's Day


The Moms I Know

Flowery poems about dear “Mother”
have their purpose, I suppose.
But the moms I know aren’t
each a goddess, angel or rose.

The moms I know have their faults.
They may act a bit stressed or crazy.
They mess things up, are a tad selfish,
And, at times, they’re even a little lazy.

They might not get it
when things happen right under their nose.
They fear they’ve done permanent damage.
As the years pass, uncertainty grows.

The moms I know are human,
but fiercely fight for their kids to survive.
They’d do anything for them.
Their joy is to see them thrive.
