Mother Days Poems

Mother Days Poems as a title may seem flawed but searchers are flawed so I'm going with the flaw.

I bring you a poem in two languages, English UK and English USA and also, in rhyme, I take the time, to explain what determines the dates of Mother Days

Many Countries adopt Mothers Day, per USAOn the second Sunday, in the month of MayBut not so, in Ireland and the UK

Mothering Sunday there, is always spentOn the fourth Sunday after the start of LentSo why, you ask, does Lent move around?Because Easter need good light on the groundIt's to do with a full moon in the skyGood light for walking is the reason whyPilgrims to the holy lands walked at night They relied heavily on good moon lightSo the holy day (Easter Sunday) follows the moonIt's always in the Spring, but can be late or soon

This year, 2011, Mothering Sunday is very lateSunday April 3rd is precisely the dateSo I bring you now a poem for Mother's DayIs it original? I hear you say. Or nick it, as is oft your way?I adapted it, well, that's my excuseBut I've made it perfect for Mick and Brit use

So here goes, with the adapted one of the Mother Days Poems

For all the nappies that you've changed.For all the play dates you've arranged.

For all the trips back and forth to schoolFor mopping up gallons of vomit and drool.

For putting up with all that swillYou should have all of March..and a bit of April.

One day is just not enough... and yetI'm sorry, pet, but that's all you get

So spend your special Sunday, April ThreeHappily, and very work-free
