Hello, and happy mother’s day to all mothers out there.

I first wrote this 16 yrs. ago when I was a young single mother of two

“rugrats.” It had gotten published at the time in a small newspaper.

so here is a look at the “sarcastic side” of Mother’s day.

please enjoy.

Luna

It’s Mother’s day!

oh no

It’s here again.

Time to call

all my friends

To wish them

a happy day too.

Even if

it might not

come true.

It’s Mother’s day!

soo full of fun

I think I got

too much sun!

A box of chocolates

a flower or two

I think I might

Be getting the flu!

All my chores

still need to be done

isn’t this supposed

to be a day

of fun?

Don’t you see?

Something might be

wrong here!

Thank goodness

it comes

only once a year!

May 1995

Thank you Jingle!

1000 Lanterns

 

If I flew a 1000 paper lanterns

Way up in the sky

Would you see them from your window

If they flew real high?

 

Would 1000 paper lanterns

Travel that far away?

A 1000 miles through the air

Could they go that far today?

 

Would you know when you saw them

That they came from my heart

That I miss you so much every day

And we are so far apart.

 

And when your sister follows soon

My world will fall apart

And I will send a 1000 lanterns

For both daughters of my heart.

 

And when you see them in the air

Know they are from me.

And that I will love you both

From now through Eternity.

 My beautiful girls.
