My Mother - Anne Taylor

mother day poems 1


Who fed me from her gentle breast,
And hushed me in her arms to rest,
And on my cheek sweet kisses prest?
My Mother.

When pain and sickness made me cry,
Who gazed upon my heavy eye,
And wept, for fear that I should die?
My Mother.

Who dressed my doll in clothes so gay,
And fondly taught me how to play,
And minded all I had to say?
My Mother.

Who ran to help me when I fell,
And would some pretty story tell,
Or kiss the place to make it well?
My Mother.

And can I ever cease to be
Affectionate and kind to thee,
Who was so very kind to me?
My Mother.


Mother's Love - by Author Unknown

mother day poems 2

There are times when only a Mother's love
Can understand our tears,
Can soothe our disappoints
And calm all of our fears.

There are times when only a Mother's love
Can share the joy we feel
When something we've dreamed about
Quite suddenly is real.

There are times when only a Mother's faith
Can help us on life's way
And inspire in us the confidence
We need from day to day.

For a Mother's heart and a Mother's faith
And a Mother's steadfast love
Were fashioned by the Angels
And sent from God above.


A Mother Casts Her Dreams into the Sea

mother day poems 3



A mother casts her dreams into the sea;
We, the words sent bobbing towards the sun,
The eggs of stone, the shards of prophesy.

Because she must conclude her melody
And fall back to the sweet dark hush of One,
A mother casts her dreams into the sea,

Hoping to cross that wild infinity
And on some infant shore again to run,
The eggs of stone, the shards of prophesy

Outside the fiery circle of memory,
The howling surf, the incessant years undone ...
A mother casts her dreams into the sea

And then dissolves into a tapestry,
Her rolling, helpless drift again begun,
The eggs of stone, the shards of prophesy

Afloat once more upon eternity,
Once more the alien fury, never done ...
Again, again, her dreams into the sea,
The eggs of stone, the shards of prophesy!

  To A Gift on Mother's Day

mother day poems 4


Through my eyes I see
A sanctum,
Where there are leaves to lead the way;
There the grass needs never cutting
And stays groomed everyday.

Through my eyes I see
A sanctum
That no one can take away.
And through my eyes I see a place
Where all the kids can play.

Through my eyes I see
A sanctum
Where all the days are years;
The mommies there will never age,
Nor will they cry a tear.

I think I'll call this Mom's Land,
For beyond its flowered wall,
The beauty matches only a mother's

And that is the most beautiful of all.

Mother's Day In New Zealand - celebration mothers day 2012

 In New Zealand Mothers Day is celebrated on the second Sunday in the month of May. This is the same day on which US celebrates its Mothers Day. And as the idea of celebrating Mothers Day in New Zealand has come from US, the manner of celebrating Mothers Day in New Zealand is much the same as that in US. On Mothers Day people of New Zealand thank their mothers and recognize their esteemed efforts in bringing them up and caring for them.

The festival of Mothers Day has turned out to be a big day for the people of New Zealand. There is a big euphoria over the day and people celebrate the day by going out for picnics and dinners. Markets see a busy time as people make it a point to buy gifts for their mothers, grand mothers and friends and relatives who are mothers. Flowers and cards business particularly flourish at this time of the year.

People also indulge their mothers by treating them with breakfast in bed and baking a Mother’s Day special cakes for them. Some also like to give their mother a days rest from the kitchen and household chores and treat them with a spa or beauty treatment.
Mother is the only person who doesn't care if you puked milk or drooled on her, instead she is the one who will always call you cute and kiss you goodnight. She will scold you but in the end will be the last person standing beside you. Similar to most of the western countries, mother's day celebration in New Zealand take place on the second Sunday of May. Since the concept has been taken from the west, the celebration idea and the reason behind it are also the same. New Zealanders celebrate mother's day with great emotions and feelings. They realize that the contribution of a mother in a child's life is unfathomable and that there needs to be a day that is completely dedicated to such a wonderful being. For them, mother's day commemorates the efforts of a mother and the role she plays in a person's life. Sometimes she is our mother, and other times she behaves like a friend who understands us so better. No matter what we do, we can never detach ourselves from our mothers, not even if she is a foster-mother as the warmth she provides never changes.

When we are in deep trouble she will be there backing us up. The truth can't be denied, she is always awake for us irrespective of the fact that she may be tired working all day. Mothers are like a support system for us without whom we cannot survive and can't even function. After meaning so much to us how can we not celebrate mother's day and enjoy it too. Same feelings New Zealanders have for their mums and that is why it is rejoiced over there.

The idea of mother's day originated from ancient Greek and Roman times to honor Rhea, the mother of the gods and Hilaria, the mother goddess Cybele. Since then, the day of honouring mothers spread across the world and today almost all the countries have adopted it. New Zealand, the land of kiwis, is also on the same list and the idea or concept is catching hold in New Zealand as well. The people there celebrate the day with great pomp and show and show a great zeal and enthusiasm for it. On mother's day, the environment in New Zealand is totally colourful. Children undertake special efforts to please their mothers. In this country also, commercialization has brought about a lot of awareness of the day, thereby increasing its importance all the more. The people have been made aware in advance about the coming of the auspicious day.

From giving flowers to taking Moms out for dinner, to having a family picnic, pampering them in a spa, baking cakes to serving breakfast in the bed, the options for New Zealanders are aplenty. On this special day, they not only remember their mother, but also other women who have contributed to their life, like their grand mother, aunt, nanny, etc. The day not only revives the bond between a mother and a child, but also brings them closer. On this day, children also give rest to their mother from regular chores and take over her responsibilities.

In today's busy world mother's day makes you feel nostalgic as it reminds you of your childhood; moreover, you get some time to meet and enjoy with your mother, out of your daily routine tasks. It is the day that brings the family and mother (family's pivotal link) together and gives you another reason to celebrate and stay happy. In short, mother's day is a happy occasion in New Zealand.
