Your Mother Is Always With You
Poems About Mothers
Your mother is always with you
She's the whisper of the leaves
as you walk down the street.
She's the smell of bleach
in your freshly laundered socks.
She's the cool hand on your brow
when you're not well.
Your mother lives inside your laughter.
She's crystallized in every tear drop.
She's the place you came from,
your first home...
She's the map you follow
with every step that you take.
She's your first love
and your first heart break...
and nothing on earth can separate you.
Not time, Not space...
Not even death
will ever separate you
from your mother...
You carry her inside of you...

The Bravest Battle
Motherhood
The bravest battle that ever was fought!
Shall I tell you where and when?
On the maps of the world you will find it not;
'Twas fought by the mothers of men.
Nay not with the cannon of battle-shot,
With a sword or noble pen;
Nay, not with eloquent words or thought
From mouth of wonderful men!
But deep in a walled-up woman's heart-
Of a woman that would not yield,
But bravely, silently bore her part-
Lo, there is the battlefield!
No marshalling troops, no bivouac song,
No banner to gleam and wave;
But oh! those battles, they last so long-
From babyhood to the grave.
Yet, faithful still as a bridge of stars,
She fights in her walled-up town-
Fights on and on in her endless wars,
Then silent, unseen, goes down.
Oh, ye with banners and battle-shot,
And soldiers to shout and paise!
I tell you the kingliest victories fought
Were fought in those silent ways.
O spotless woman in a world of shame,
With splendid and silent scorn,
Go back to God as white as you came-
The Kingliest warrior born!
- Poem by Joaquin Miller
A girl is Innocence playing in the mud,
Beauty standing on its head,
and Motherhood dragging a doll by the foot.
- Quote by Allan Beck
My mother was the most
beautiful woman I ever saw.
All I am, I owe to my mother.
I attribute all my success in life
to the moral, intellectual and
physical education I received from her.
- Quote by George Washington
