More Than A Mother

Author: Kari Keshmiry

When God set the world in place, when He hung the stars up in space,
when He made the land and the sea, then He made you and me.

He sat back and saw that was good, He saw things to be as they should.
Just one more blessing He had in store; He created a mother,
but whatever for?

He knew a mother would have a special place to shine
His reflection on her child's face.
A mother will walk the extra mile just to see her children smile.
She'll work her fingers to the bone to make a house into a home.

A mother is there to teach and guide, a mother will stay right bu your side.
She'll be there through your pain and strife, she'll stay constant in your life.

A mother will lend a helping hand until you have the strength to stand.
She'll pick you up when you are down,
when you need a friend she'll stick around.

A mother is one who listens well, will keep her word; will never tell.

A mother never pokes or pries but stands quietly by your side,
giving you the strength you need, encouraging you to succeed.

A mother is one who can be strong when you need someone to lean on.

You're more than a mother to me; a reflection of Him in your face I see,
a love that knows no boundaries.

I'm glad that you chose to be all this and more to me.
You share a love that knows no end, you're more than my mother,
you are my friend.

    Thank you!! I think you should write a book of your many quotes and I think, by seeing what you share here, that you probably could write a lot of these type things authored by you.
    Mother's are thankful for children like you. I have two of them, one son and one daughter.

    What an absolutely beautiful & inspiring poem. Makes me wish I could raise my boys all over again. I have two wonderful sons that I totally adore. They are grown now & have families of their own. They both turned out to be great father's but I have to give their father credit here, he was an awesome father himself. Your Mother must be very proud to call you son. And bless her too for raising such a nice man. I hope that the two fo you get to spend some time together on this special day. God bless you both.

    Thank you all, unfortunately my mother and I live 8 hours apart. So telephone time is all we get, but we also talk 3 times a week at least. Mama's boy all the way here and proud of it. =0) I will be home in 3 weeks though so will make up for it then.

    So you all enjoy your day filled with lots of love and cherished moments and know that even if your mom is your angel now you get to spend every waking hour with her. She is always in your heart and mind and still helps you through all of those tough moments so never forget that.
  • Thank you, it is such a blessing to be a mom and I absolutely wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.
