Mother’s day has had a great deal of importance since the early 20th century. Mothers are the pillars of our life, they never stop doings things for us even when they are old.
History of Mother’s day
Mother’s day was first celebrated in 1908, when a memorial was held by Anna Jarvis for her mother at St. Andrew’s methodist church in West Virginia. Anna Jarvis was a peace activist who helped wounded soldiers from the both sides during the American civil war. She created Mother’s day health clubs to address public health issues. She believed that Mother’s must have a special day to celebrate all their hardwork. She said that Mother’s do more for you than anyone in the world. But eventually she started boycotting Mother’s day due to its commercialization. She believed that love for the mother should be expressed using hand written letters and handmade things.
Mother’s day is celebrated on different dates throughout the world. Mother’s day 2018 is being celebrated on May 13.
To Honor Anna Jarvis and all the mother’s in the world I have written a small poem that describes her journey through life.
Mother’s day
There are so many days to celebrate love, but she definitely needs a special day. This is for all the Mommies out there…
The best woman I know
It’s a story, a way of life
Yes she does transform our life
It’s the best woman we know
Who never leaves you low
Takes care of you no matter what
Always by your side no matter what
Her life is a story, a way of life
I am always short on words when i tell her story
She is the one who makes us capable of shining in our story
All those all nighters when we are sick
Listen to all our stories and never gets sick
Teaches us how to talk
Picks us up when we can’t walk
Her life is a story, a way of life
It all changes when we get a husband or wife
But she takes all this boldly
Never ever says a word sadly
We ignore her, leave her in old age homes
She is the one who makes home, home
Even after this she still could give her life for you
Even though it doesn’t matter to you
You are this bossy figure now
Who doesn’t care about anything but you
You are rich and successful now
Then you have kids and wow
Without even knowing 30 years have passed
And you are sitting in this old age home now
Thats when reality strikes and you curse, and feel like shit
But then you remember her, who didn’t cry a bit
You are sad, shattered and lonely
but most of all sorry for hurting that lady so lovely
Then you wake up it’s all just a dream
Run to your parents room and kiss her
I will never leave you , i will never hurt you
Then you understand her story of life..which is a way of life
Thanks mom for always being there. Happy Mother’s day
