Celebrating Moms

My friend, C R Ward at Random Thoughts presents a different form of poetry each week. I'm using the Found form where you take a piece of writing found and break it up poetically (see her site for a better definition).

How to Say I Love You, Mom

A pretty bouquet
For Mother's Day,
"Thanks for helping me grow!"

Show her that
You think she's tops
With a custom crown,
"You're queen for the day!"

A spot of tea
Is a soothing treat,
A greeting brimming
With thoughtfulness.

HaPpY MoThErS DaY!

I found these phrases in the May 2011 edition of Family Fun magazine.

    You did a great job Tara - Found poetry isn't as easy as I thought it would be! :-)
