We met so many beautiful and wonderful Mothers around the world. This is just a simple little poem I wrote with photos of some of my favorite moms... Some from far away and some close to home. I love them all.
They teach us how to walk and read
They read us bedtime stories
Some moms are big and some are brown
Some have shiny hair of black
A mother’s touch is soft and kind
When mother holds you in her arms
A Mother’s Love

Mommies kiss and mommies hug
You know their love is true
With kind words and soft sounds
They whisper “I love you”
Gentle arms hold us tight
They never let us go
They watch us, oh, so carefully
As we learn and grow
They help us learn to run
And play so we have fun
And some have skin of gold
And some are sweet and old
Their love they always share
You know how much she cares
this is very nice
