MOTHER'S DAY
Del Abe Jones

There were some different beginnings
To what we know as, Mother s Day
One woman, Anna Reeves Jarvis
Mothers Work Day Clubs , her way.

They focused on sanitary conditions
And provided medicines for the poor
They promised to care for all Soldiers
From both sides in the Civil War.

After that War that had divided
The new-found peace would take her
To healing families and friends
And she became a real peacemaker.

Then, in the Eighteen seventies
Something we could sure use now
Mothers Peace Day was started
By, Julia Ward Howe.

A famous woman of the time
Reformer, lecturer, and writer of note
The Battle Hymn Of The Republic
Is something that she wrote.

A woman suffrage association
Voted her their first President
And hers, the first suggestion
To have a Mother s Day event.

Then there was Frank Hering
In the year Nineteen ought-four
Of the Fraternal Order Of Eagles
Who claimed to open the door.

In Nineteen fourteen Woodrow Wilson
Recommending a Federal Mother's Day
Signed a joint resolution
That we now observe each year in May.

No matter who takes the credit
It was a long time overdue
To honor all those Ladies
Who gave life to me and you.

So, those who still have theirs
Should remember those times passed
And thank Her now for all those things
She s done for you in the past.

For those whose Mom is gone
It s a time to reflect and say,
Mom, I love and miss you,
On this, and every other day.

Our Mothers shape our being
And have an endless wealth to give
And She will be a part of us
For as long as we may live.

Have a wonderful Mother's Day weekend. :-)

Lost In Time.
©Written by: Kenneth J. Ellison

Burdens of the heart overwhelm her
Sad memories constantly stir,
Mistakes made no love will forgive,
Ones her mind will forever relive.

In the lonely hours of darkness
In a dim existence of starkness
She wonders just how to carry on
With any glimmer of hope gone.

Somewhere in her muddled mind
With clouded thoughts entwined
She drifts into a dreamlike space,
Into a peaceful resting place.

In thought is a place to escape
Where illusions become shape,
A fantasy world to conceal her
When clarity becomes a blur.

It's a paradise where she stays
Hidden through troubled days,
There is never reflection there,
No painful memories will flare.

Lost in time in her Eden of ease
There's no mistakes to appease,
Those made in the world outside
Have no presence where she hides.

Terrible acts done she cannot undo
She cannot change what's through,
There is no forgiveness in any heart,
No harmed one allows a new start.

Frequently lost in time in her mind
She flees to leave reality behind,
She escapes to that peaceful nook
To live happily in a fairytale book.

There no feelings can be crushed
No life changes must be rushed,
It's a serene place to be she thinks
As sanity teeters on the brink.

Enjoy your weekend. :-)
