(On Mother's Day)
If you didn’t send me flowers
Or forgot to write me a poem
Or sing me greeting songs
I will sleep as much as I want
Sneak out my chocolate cake
Enjoy a salon treat
And excitedly, splurge for that dress!!!
I may choose a quieter time, too
Like smell the lavenders by my yard
Dust off my book to sit and read
Or bring out that jounal to simply fill it in…
Regardless, it will be MY DAY
For though, I’m grateful for all your cheers and treats
I realized it is “I” who must
Truly LOVE & CHERISH ME
So, loved ones, I will take this break
Give myself a “Mother’s Day”
I will pause … rest … care
Because I LOVE ME
For a strong woman
Never waits for HAPPINESS to be brought in
I create it, I inspire it
So when YOU need it … I have lots to give 
MOM
