Poems For Mother’s Day From Kids
1, Mother, a Messenger of the Lords © Dhiraj Seth
Adding comforts to our life;
“Mother”, is a word that says it all.
Staying strong, by our side;
helping us, stand mighty and tall.
Building a shelter around us;
her love is barred of all conditions.
Mentoring us into holistic humans;
giving our entity, the desired dimensions.
Seeking her soothing touch;
we often call out to her in pain.
Healing us with her warmth;
nudging our soul, to rise up again.
Wiping all those tears;
be it ones of happiness or sorrow.
Embracing us all along;
nurturing our lives, for a better tomorrow.
Being selfless and sacrificing;
“Mother”, is a Messenger of the Lords.
Making us her focussed devotion;
she strengthens up, to fight out all the odds.

She makes me smile,
though I made her cry.
Her understanding
is infinite like the sky.
She adores me so
much like no one does.
She carried me-
from her womb
to her loving arms.
She taught me how
to read and write,
and taught me
what’s wrong and right.
She molded me
to be the man
I’ve become.
I love her so much…

I know you don’t believe what I’ll say.
But to me mother’s day is everyday.
I know everyone will try to relate.
But I still wish I can take my mom out to Nelson Mandela Bay.
She deserve it, she deserve to relax and smile especially today.
My mom is my God.
She always love and Protect me against the world.
Respect your Mother’s words.
They’re powerful than a sword.
You wanna know true unconditional love?
Learn it from your mom, when it comes to that she’s number one.
The feeling of seeing you getting old it’s unexplainable.
You work hard everyday but still manage to keep that smile, it unbelievable.
I guess that is why they compare you with “imbokodo” you’re unbreakable.
Mama you are kind, sweet, mma you’re loveable.
Jehovah protect my mother.
So that she can see me grow like my brother.
One day, I will take you out to see the world across the boarder.
As long you promise me that you’ll live longer.

I know I have grown enough,
But somewhere, I am a Cry baby,
The Baby used to Sleep before you,
The Baby used to Eat After you.
The Baby used to Play with,
The Baby used to Grow with,
My sleeping eyes waits for your Hand,
Who makes me Asleep!
My Missing ears searches for your voice,
Who makes me Asleep!
Mother, Mother, Oh! Mother,
May GOD be kind with you,
Like, You used to be with Me,
There is another name of GOD,
Which,we call in Double-Trouble
MOTHER, MOTHER, OH! Mother…

Mommy, I love you
More than you see.
You have always been there
When I needed you to be.
I know I don’t show
How great my love is,
But I need you to know
All the love of you I have to give.
I wish there was more
For you I could do,
But all I can say
Is how much I love you.
It is deeper than the oceans,
Higher than the sun.
I could shout it forever
And still not be done.
Your smile is a keepsake.
I keep close to my heart
That I open up and treasure
When we are apart.
6, Dear Mom… © Unknown
Since the day I was small
Till the day I became tall
Since I began understanding things
Till the day I got my own wings
Your love has never fallen short
You have been my only support
I want to hold you tight and hug you
I just want to say thank you.
7, My Great Teacher © Davidson Perfect
Oh! My mother that I know
A woman that thought me the things I must know
She was with me through the steps of life
She was with me even when I too my first step in life
Oh! The woman that gave me a helping hand when I want to fall
And never did she let me fall
All through my boyish age do I rest on her laps
Sucking the baby food from her laps
Through her I became the best
Living by her teaching has make me better than the rest
What a great woman that thought me all about life
She thought me never to surrender to the hardness of life
Her role as a mother never be replace by a father
For her advice can put one’s body together
She is the reason am alive
Because of her I always feel alive.
Oh! My mother. I vow to make u happy in your old age
You will never lack even if you are hundred years of age.
Your love for me has make me to be a good child
Now people are talking good about me ur child
I love u my mother
Because ur love for me beat all the bad weather
You are the best among the rest
I love you my best.
8, I Love You, Mum © Jessica Ashton
They way I feel, I can’t explain
The gratitude inside
For all the days and all the nights
You spent right by my side.
For every hug and every kiss
To send me on my way,
For always putting me to bed,
To prepare me for another day.
For loving me through the hurt
And pain that’s come my way.
For holding on to me so tight
That I can barely breathe.
For never letting go
Of the hope you hold for my life.
For keeping it so close to you heart
All this time.
For yelling at me when I’m out of place
For telling me the truth.
For forgiving me for what I say
‘Cause I know it hurts.
So now I say what I feel
At this time and day
That Mum I LOVE YOU all the time,
So Happy Mother’s Day.

11, A Mother… © Unknown
When you’re a child she walks before you
To set an example.
When you’re a teenager she walks behind you
To be there should you need her.
When you’re an adult she walks beside you
So that as two friends you can enjoy life together.
12, Happy Mother’s Day © Kelvin Robert
I look up at the shinning stars,
Am impressed with its brightness,
And how adorable they really are.
These is what makes a night awesome,
To an extent of having guts towards its opponent,
Daytime which only heats me with the sunshine.
Each soul on planet wishes to feel,
That sense of significance and value,
But mine its teared apart into pieces.
Genuine pieces are nowhere to be found,
All I came up with after a long day search,
Was condolences from her loved ones.
I remember my friends whisperers,
GROW UP DUDE,
THATS HOW UNIVERSE WORKS.
But still under the shade of a big tree,
I cried harshly upon my own mind’s delusions,
When your corpse popped up inside my head.
It’s you mom,
Who carried me for nine month,
There inside your belly.
Who chose to sleep hungry,
Regardless a tiresome day at work,
In order for your son to eat,
Who stood up savagely like a lioness,
Chest bulged outwards and roaring nonstop,
Whenever your son was under an attack.
How comes you’ve disappeared so fast?
Especially in these wonderful day,
Of all superhero mothers out there.
I needed to feel warmness of your touch,
To hear sharpness of that gentle voice,
While we play with pillows inside just the two of us.
May the angels convey these message to you,
That your son loves you with all his heart,
13, To My Mummy © Nick
From the moment we met
And you held me so tight,
I knew I was safe
As you kissed me goodnight.
I woke up so often
And stumbled with feeds.
You never gave up on me,
Met all my needs.
Now that I’m almost
A three-month0old boy,
I want you to know that
You’re my greatest joy.
They say that we look alike,
Same eyes and nose,
Better than looking
Like Dad, I suppose.
I love when we cuddle.
I love when we play.
I love that you sing to me
Every day.
Whenever I cry or
I poop or I pee,
Thank you for taking
Such good care of me.
Thank you for loving me,
No matter what.
Everything you do
To me means a lot.
Next time you hear me say,
“Ga ga goo goo,”
What I’m really saying is,
“Mummy, I love you.”
Happy Mother’s Day
Love,
14, My Mother © Sinitta Washington
I know of a woman whose strength is of a bear.
And even when she’s not that happy, she always takes time out to care.
I know of a woman whose beauty is that of a queen.
But she continues to teach us that beauty doesn’t mean a thing.
You see, this woman I know is surely like no other.
Because the woman I mention here is truly my great mother.
15, Mommy, I Love You © Nicholas Gordon
Mommy, I love you
For all that you do.
I’ll kiss you and hug you
‘Cause you love me, too.
You feed me and need me
To teach you to play,
So smile ’cause I love you
On this Mother’s Day.
16, Mom © Victoria A. Ledet
Mom, you are the centerpiece of my life.
The light in my sun.
I can’t thank you enough for all you have done.
You make me smile when I am sad.
You are the best mother a child could ever have.
You console me deeply when something’s wrong.
You know when something’s happened or something’s going on.
I appreciate the love you bring in.
You cheer me up when I lose.
You make me laugh when I win.
You turn my moon into a sun.
You’ve done too much though my life has just begun.
You give me a shelter and food to eat.
You are the soles in my shoes,
The bones in my feet.
You support me and hold me tall.
You stand me high and don’t let me fall.
You make my life easier in every way.
That’s why I want to say Happy Mother’s Day!
17, My Mother © Shameka Martin
I love her so much, my mother.
She’s always in my heart.
Even though we argue,
we’ll never be apart.
She can tell when I have problems.
She knows when I am down.
She’s always there to cheer me up
and take away my frowns.
At times when I get mad at her,
it’s hard to stay that way.
Only because she makes me laugh
every passing day.
I love my mother with all my heart,
but this she does not know.
Sometimes I want to tell her,
but I’m afraid to let it show.
18, A Special Love © Bindiya M. Bissasir
You’re like the sun
that brightens the day.
When you’re not there,
the light goes away.
You’re like the moon
that brightens the night.
When you’re not around,
there is no light.
You’re like the stars
that shine so bright.
You’re never wrong
but always right.
You’re like the tree
that bears the sweetest pear.
There’s one thing
in my heart I want to say.
“You’re the world’s best mom
I see every day.”
19, A Mom Is Like A Present © Andee
A mom is a person to stand right
beside you until the very end.
She’ll always be there for you,
no matter where or when.
A mommy will care for you.
She’ll be right by your side.
She wants to be with you
when you need to run and hide.
A mom is like a superhero.
She’ll always be there for you,
and when you need her the most,
she’ll always come through.
A mother is like a shining star,
shining through the night,
a big beautiful brightness
that helps you when you’re in fright.
A mother is like a present
you get on Christmas morning.
She’s fun, joyful, and caring,
and she’s rarely ever boring.
20. Mom’s Special Day © Marena
Mom, today’s your special day,
And you need to take a rest.
I’ll do everything for you
To make it the best.
Mom, you’re sweet,
And you mean the world to me.
You do every little thing
Cheerfully.
You’re too loving and kind
To do so much work.
I’ll always help out
Instead of being a jerk.

While we honor all our mothers

A mother wraps
her love around the heart
of her daughter,
keeping each beat steady
through the rhythm of life,
until wings take shape,
and it’s time for the soul
to take flight.
5, Mother & Daughter © Unknown
It’s a special bond that spans the years,
through laughter, worry, smiles, and tears.
A sense of trust that can’t be broken,
a depth of love sometimes unspoken.
A lifelong friendship built on sharing,
hugs and kisses, warmth and caring.
Mother and daughter, their hearts as one –
a link that can never be undone.
Short Mother’s Day Poems from Son

And so are you!
3, My Handprint © Anon
Here is my handprint,
Five fingers in all,
Outside they are short,
But the middle is tall.
You will find them on windows,
You can find them on the wall,
They will make a big mess,
For something so small.
One day I will grow,
And leave them no more,
My handprints will be missed,
Of that I am sure.
So here is one now,
That you can’t wipe away,
My present to you,
This Mother’s Day.
4, Fingerprints! © Unknown
Dirt and cookie fingerprints
are not too hard to find,
You’ll see them on our walls and drawers,
Where I go, they’re left behind!
But soon I’ll learn to wash my hands,
And tuck them by my side,
The walls and drawers clean once more,
No grubby marks to hide.
So here I leave my fingerprints,
Each and every one,
Painted as a reminder,
Of dirt, and cookies, and fun!
