Thank You Mum

A Mother's Day Poem For My Mum

By Mike Singleton πŸ’œ Mikeydred Published 10 months ago β€’ 1 min read
My Mum On Her Wedding Day

Introduction

It is Mother's Day in the uK today.

I have never done this before and I thought it was about time I did. My mum died of a heart attack and stroke over thirty-five years ago, and she is with me every day. I have included one of her favourite songs ("Happy" by The Carpenters) in this and written this sonnet.

Maybe others will like it and maybe it will pertain to them.

When we lose someone we love they are always with us in our hearts.

Thank You Mum

    A lovely tribute to your Mum, Mike. She would be very proud of your efforts as she looks down on you every day and in every way. My mum is 93, and I am not sure how much longer she will be around. I dread the day.

    How sweet and endearing. You could make this a greeting card for Mother's Day all over the world if you wanted to. Love it.

  • Beautiful tribute, Mike. So I take it the Carpenters reserved the entire Disney World theme park for the shoot?
