A Mother’s Smile
I like the way you smile at me
I love your special ways
You show me that I’m valued
maybe more than I know.
Sometimes I’m not fully aware
of the thoughts that you think of me
You remember me from the day of my birth
to you, I’m the best thing on this earth.
HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!
Janet Vargas © May 2012
It’s amazing the way a mother has an innate
ability to love more than one child this way!
Your Arms Were Always Open
Your arms were always open
when I needed a hug
Your heart understand
when I needed a friend
Your gentle eyes were stern
when I needed a lesson
Your strength and love
guided me and gave me wings
to help me soar.

A Mother
A Mother is one who
understands the things
you say and do.
Who always overlooks
your faults and sees the
best in you.
A Mother is one whose
special love inspires you
day by day.
Who fills your heart with
gladness in her warm
and thoughtful way.
A Mother is all these things
and more - the greatest
treasure known.
And the dearest Mother in
all of the world is the one I
call my own.

Mother’s Birthday
I like to show that you’re special
On this your Birthday_______
You bring me fond memories
Of the way that you celebrate mine.
I may not be with you all the time__
I love you mum, for you are mine.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ~ YOUR SPECIAL DAY

Mothers and Daughters
You can see it in their eyes,
in tender hugs and long good-byes,
a love that only moms and daughters know.
You can see it in their smiles,
through passing years and changing styles,
a friendship that continually seems to grow.
You can see it in their lives,
the joy each one of them derives,
in just knowing that the other one is there...
To care and to understand,
lend an ear or hold a hand,
and to celebrate the memories they share.

My Mum. She has always been a caring person
as long as I remember. She likes to learn things and is interested in people and life around her.
Happy Mother's Day
"Happy Mother's Day" means more
Than have a happy day.
Within those words lie lots of things
We never get to say.
It means I love you first of all,
Then thanks for all you do.
It means you mean a lot to me,
And that I honor you.
But most of all, I guess it means
That I am thinking of
Your happiness on this, your day,
With pleasure and with love

"Wonderful Mother"
God made a wonderful mother,
A mother who never grows old;
He made her smile of the sunshine,
And He molded her heart of pure gold;
In her eyes He placed bright shining stars,
In her cheeks fair roses you see;
God made a wonderful mother,
And He gave that dear mother to me.

Our Mother is the Sweetest
Our mother is the sweetest and
Most delicate of all.
She knows more of paradise
Than angels can recall.
She’s not only beautiful
But passionately young,
Playful as a kid, yet wise
As one who has lived long.
Her love is like the rush of life,
A bubbling, laughing spring
That runs through all like liquid light
And makes the mountains sing.

My Jesus Mum
You’re a special mother
to me there is no other.
You treat me like I’m special
even when I’m relentful.
You pick me up from my mistakes
you bless me always for Jesus’ sake
The sound of rejoicing you always make
and this is to say I LOVE YOU.
HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!
Janet Vargas © May 2012
This is my impression of a Jesus Mum
It’s always important to bless our children
For Jesus sake….and theirs!
Mother's Love
Her love is like
an island in life's ocean,
vast and wide
A peaceful, quiet shelter
From the wind, the rain, the tide.
'Tis bound on the north by Hope,
By Patience on the West,
By tender Counsel on the South
And on the East by Rest.
Above it like a beacon light
Shine Faith, and Truth, and Prayer;
And through the changing scenes of life
I find a haven there.

A Mother’s Love
There is something about a mum
Her love shines like the morning sun
To speak of her praise on her special day
Of her gentle ways remember and say
You bring me cheer when you are near
You’re precious to me, your love is so free
I want you to know, your grace still shows
In the things that you do and I love you.

A Precious Mother
Mom You've given me so much,
Love from your heart
and the warmth of your touch.
The gift of life and you're a friend to me.
We have a very Special Bond
which only comes from God...
I'm sure you agree.
As a child I would say Mommy I Love You,
Now you're my Mother so dear
I love you even more
with each and every new year.
If I could had chosen,
I would have picked no other.
Than for you...to be my lifelong friend
and Precious Mother.

My Mother's Heart
My mother's heart is so tender
and her face has a gentle glow...
she's my friend and my inspiration,
she's the sweetest mom I know.
She gives herself so freely
to those who share her life...
she clearly loves her children
with the love that comes from Christ.
Her eyes are full of compassion
her voice is soft and mild...
she lives for helping others,
leaving "heartprints" all the while.
My mother's love is special
and grows sweeter with every year...
God blessed me with an angel;
she's my precious mother, dear.

To my Son
Oh how the years go by,
Oh how time can certainly fly.
From once just a thought in far away dreams,
now into my arms and in my eyes gleam
the presence of you.
Your laughter and smiles
which go on for miles,
warms my heart and soul.
You're growing up so fast,
as I wish each moment with you to last forever.
My little boy will someday be a man
and right by your side I will forever stand.
I will pick up the pieces when you fall,
I will hold your hand and help you stand tall.
And when the day comes when you are on
your own,
never feel that you are alone.
No matter how near or far apart
I am always right there in your heart.
Always remember whatever you go through
that no matter what, I will always love you.

Mother is Just a Simple Word
Mother is just a simple word
yet it's especially dear...
And it seems to mean much
more with each passing year...
Each word of Love and Affection
describes you mother...
It's a word that's filled with love,
a word that reflects everything that's
wonderful - Wonderful just like you.

God's Gift to Me
I don't want to kiss you goodnight,
so I'll just keep holding you tight!
Because I know, you'll change and you'll grow...
You'll get bigger with each morning light.
I know that the sky is full of stars,
and dreams will call your name from afar...
I'm anxious to see all you're going to be,
but I'm sure gonna miss who you are!
But I'll keep you right here, in my heart,
and I'll memorize each little part.
One day you will grow, and I'll miss you so,
But I'll keep you right here, in my heart.
These fingers that curl around my hand,
must do things that no other can.

My Mommy Cuddles Me
kisses me, hugs me and misses me
Washes my clothes for me,
giggles and talks with me,
Says "sweet dreams" to me,
I am glad she belongs to me..
There is no love, like a mother's love
like the precious bond that comes from God
never changing for all time...
a mother's love will shine.
God bless these special mothers
for all the tears and heartache
a mother's love lives on...
with God's blessings on each one.
Be thankful for our mothers,
from the power God has given.

If I Raised My Child Again
If I had my child to raise all over again,
I'd build self-esteem first,
and point the finger less.
I would do less correcting
and watch with my eyes.
I would care to know less
I'd take more hikes and fly more kites.
and seriously play.
I would run through more fields
and less tugging.
I would be firm less often,
I'd model less about the love of power,

Grandmother’s Talent
She always knows just what to do
And to show she loves them, too.
She's the first person to look for-
And they always keep asking for more.
By the twinkle that shines in her eyes-
For she's loving, patient and wise.
Even when they are grown –
To claim Grandmother as their own!

I Love You Mom!
Mom's smiles can brighten any moment,
Mom's hugs put joy in all our days,
Mom's love will stay with us forever
and touch our lives in precious ways...
The values you've taught,
the care you've given,
and the wonderful love you've shown,
have enriched my life
in more ways than I can count.
I Love you Mom!

And Gran Too
While we honor all our mothers
with words of love and praise.
While we tell about their goodness
and their kind and loving ways.
We should also think of Gran,
she's a mother too, you see....
For she mothered my dear mother
as my mother mothers me.

A Walk with Grandma
I like to walk with Grandma,
she takes small steps like mine.
She never says "let's hurry-up!
she always takes her time.
I like to walk with Grandma,
her eyes see things like mine.
Shiny stones, a fluffy cloud,
stars at night that shine.
People rush their whole day through,
they rarely stop to see.
I'm glad that God made Grandmas
unrushed and young like me!
Anonymous
What Grans are For
Grandmas are for stories
about things of long ago.
Grandmas are for caring
about all the things you know...
Grandmas are for rocking you
and singing you to sleep,
Grandmas are for giving you
nice memories to keep...
Grandmas are for knowing
all the things you're dreaming of...
But, most importantly of all,
grandmas are for love.

Nan's Special Guests
Last week we went to Nana's place
her table was covered in vivid lace
She said she was saving it for quite some time
and now that we're growing up that will be fine
So now we are her special guests
we learn her etiquette, neatly dressed.

Grandma's Hugs Are
Made Of Love!
Everything my grandma does
is something special made with love.
She takes time to add the extra touch
that says, "I love you very much."
She fixes hurts with a kiss and smile
and tells good stories grandma-style.
It's warm and cozy on her lap
for secret telling or a nap.
And when I say my prayers at night
I ask God to bless and hold her tight.
Cause when it comes to giving hugs
my grandma's arms are filled with love!

To Be Like You, Gran
Your watchful eye protects me, mostly from myself,
Your unconditional love encourages me to be myself,
Your confidence empowers me to try new things
while your laughter fills me with hope,
Your many acts of kindness soften my heart and make me stronger,
Under your guidance, I have grown and someday,
when someone calls me gran
I pray she feels the same way about me.

My Dear Mum
Whoever said you lose beauty with age
for beauty's within the heart
For all the days you've smiled at me
you loved me from the start.
I think of you when skies are blue
those moments our hearts are in tune.
You've grown more interesting with age
I could write more than a page.
You are the best friend I ever had
when I think of you my heart is glad
that I've had a mother just like you...
one that's faithful, constantly true.
I'd just like to say that "I love you!"

A Daughter and Mother
A bond between a daughter and mother
is a bond that's like no other
it grows more precious with age
those things you care to relate.
If I only knew those gems in you
that I see in times I spend with you.
You were always quiet
but it's come to light__
the treasures I see in you.
Sharing your interests as you share mine
our bond has grown deeper with time.

If Roses Grow in Heaven
If Roses grow in Heaven
Lord, please pick a bunch for me.
Place them in my Mother's arms
and tell her they're from me.
Tell her that I love her and miss her,
and when she turns to smile,
place a kiss upon her cheek
and hold her for awhile.
Because remembering her is easy,
I do it every day,
but there's an ache within my heart
that will never go away.

This Poem is by Request - to keep in the context of my Web-Site, I think it's more Beautiful than sad...
You think I'm Special
I really feel quite special
That God has chosen you.
To be a person in my life
Who knows me through and through.
The time that we spend talking,
I've always felt you heard...
You've been so good at listening
To each and every word.
And even things I didn't share,
You somehow heard them too.
I think this is a special gift
That God has given you.
So I just want to thank you
For being there for me,
And showing me acceptance
And love so totally.

Because of You
Ever since the day I was born.
You have nurtured me with love and kindness.
You have been someone I can believe in,
And someone I can depend upon.
In this world I am just staring to understand.
And it's important to me that you know
How grateful I am,
For all that you give to me,
For all that you teach me,
And for the strength I will have,
Because of you, grandma.

Grandmother-grandchild relationships are simple. Grandmas are short on critique and long on love.
Grandparents are Special
When God created grandparents
the world was truly blessed
with all the special joys
that make a family happiest...
For grandparents know how to do
the things that warm a heart,
They touch our lives with loving care
right from the very start...
They show that they believe in us
and all we're dreaming of...
When God created grandparents,
He blessed our lives with love.

That Wonderful Mother of Mine
The moon never beams without bringing me dreams
Of that wonderful mother of mine.
The birds never sing but a message they bring
Of that wonderful mother of mine.
Just to bring back the time, that was so sweet to me,
Just to bring back the days, when I sat on her knee.
I pray every night to our Father above,
For that wonderful mother of mine.
I ask Him to keep her as long as He can
That -- wonderful mother of mine.
There are treasures on earth, that made life seem worthwhile,
But there's none can compare to my mother's smile.
You are a wonderful mother, dear Mother
of mine.
You'll hold a spot down deep in my heart,
'Till the stars no longer shine.
Your soul shall live on forever,
On through the fields of time.
For there'll never be another to me,
Like that wonderful Mother of mine.

Grandparents
Grandparents bestow upon their grandchildren
The strength and wisdom that time
And experience have given them.
Grandchildren bless their Grandparents
With a youthful vitality and innocence
That help them stay young at heart forever.
Together they create a chain of love
Linking the past with the future.
The chain may lengthen,
But it will never part...

loves us is simply to be happy. ~Robert Brault
