Lunchtime Quickie

posted by on May 9 at 11:45 AM

It’s Sunday fool. Don’t go forgetting…

M is for the moan, and the miserable groan, from the pain that She felt when I was born

O is for the oven with it’s burnin’ heat
where She stood makin’ sure I had something to eat

T is for the time that She stayed up at night
and took my temperature when I wasn’t feelin’ right

H is for the hard earned money She spent
to keep clothes on my back and tryin’ to pay da’ rent

E is every wrinkle I put on Her face
and every worry that I caused when I stayed out late

The last letter R is that She taught me Respect
and for the room up in Heaven that I know She’ll get

I love that "born" and "groan" rhyme.

Remember, the founder of Mother's Day thought the best gift was a hug or a personal letter.

Not any of that fancy stuff they try to shove down our throats now ...
