We do this by writing letters, sending cards and flowers, and buying or making presents for our mothers. One of the most touching tributes is reading or writing Mothers Day poems.

Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Bertolt Brecht, Robert Louis Stevenson, Robert Burns and Henry Van Dyke are only a few who have written poems in honour of mothers. These stanzas are able to strike a chord in people who live in countries around the world because they can identify with the sentiments. The love and care of a doting, patient mother is one of those universal experiences that almost everyone shares.

Nice mother day poem:

A Mother's Love
by DisturbedMind

A mother's love
Is always true
It's all you need
To get you through

A mother's love
Can seem like hate
She's only tough
To keep you safe

A mother's love
Is always there
In simple ways
She'll show she cares

A mother's love
Can never compare
With anyone else's
Anywhere

A mother's love
Is here to stay
I love you, mom
Happy Mother's Day!
