A MOTHER'S DAY
FOR MOTHER'S DAY
Is what 'Dan Webster' has to say,
About the day we set aside,
And fondly call, Mother's Day.
While you're remembering Mama,
She's remembering too.
All the things in a mother's day,
She has had to do!
All those two o'clock feedings,
That often last till four.
Diapers, formula, and colic,
Pacing up and down the floor.
Guiding you through each new step.
Understanding each new word.
Juggling her career,
With Barney and Big Bird!
Putting on band-aids,
With a kiss to make it better.
She'll bundle YOU up in sweaters!
Although she had to scold you,
For ruining her new rug.
With a tender loving hug.
Christmas morning she can be found,
Knee deep in paper and toys!
Holding up rather nicely,
Despite all the mess and the noise!
Losing you in Penny's,
Finding you in Sears!
Kissing away your fears.
Nursing you through fevers,
Measles and the mumps.
Skinned knees and "skeeter bites",
And all your lumps and bumps.
Chauffeuring you to lessons,
To parties and to games.
Watching you play all your sports,
Even when it rains!
Then your first new car.
Worrying and wondering,
Just where on earth you are!
From your first day kindergarten,
To your final graduation.
She comforted and guided you,
Through all your trials and tribulations.
Feeding and caring for,
Your furry little friends!
All this and so much more,
The list just never ends!
You can always depend.
Will never, ever end!
So, While you're remembering MaMa,
Please be remembering too,
She has done for you!
