  • Hi mother love of my life
    Sweet butterfly that twirls around the flowers
    Sweet bee that feeds me with its pollen to know
    My mother, a red rose for you that you created me with love
    I always feel your sweet scent of jasmine
    Mother light of my eyes
    You always look at me like you were a beautiful and rare orchid
    Mother you are always in my dearest memories
    you and me fall asleep in a field of flowers warmed by the sun
    My mother that day you flew to the sky like a beautiful white dove I lost sight of you
    But you remained close to my heart
    I love you intensely
    Hi mother
    A kiss to all the mothers of the world

    Oh my mother


    I miss bake of my mother

     when she prepare coffee

    And the touch of this flower

    that has beautiful smell in the field

    My mom is the spring of my life

    And  universe is no better than half


    of my mother


    I miss that voice

    and bird of paradise
     
    I miss that face

    and the rose of iris

     this is very nice

    and the green eyes


    of my mother


    My mother has all the kindness

    I love her nice art

    there is no selfishness

    mom is the bigest part


    Oh my mother


    You are stronger than lion

    You are stronger than tyrannosaurus

    You are the queen of fashion

    you are the queen of the palace


    oh my mother



    you are the sun in the morning

    You shine as the  light

    and the moon of  the evening

    In the darkness of the night


    you are my mother

    My mother is not like anyone ever

     due of my mom I was a boy
    due of my mom now I enjoy

    I know that I live in her heart forever

    I want to say thank you

    Because you were watching
    when I was crying

    and you had always new

    you are the best
    you gave the max
    with you we can live in fun

    and  this test
    from the god to us
    for you we have to run

    The mother is like  the galaxy

    we're just little stars
    she know what she does

    her heart is bigger than sea


    the mother is always the first

    She is the nicest woman in the world
    We can only respond by word

    thank you cause it's first and last


    when I was 3 years old
    I was little as the cub
    you were near me

    you're carrying me and you told
     sleep sleep in the crib
    I remember your song to me


    Swallow can fly

    Fish live in water

    you're in the sky

    with your daughter

    you always try

    to make me better
     

    rose and the flower

    are in the land

    me and my sister

    with you till the end



      <3 I love my mother <3



    this is my best :)

                                           strayed away even when we could not let things be.

                                            but those ( roses ) will stay with you in memory each and every day.

                                           you also then send me ( mother's ) day cards and  (roses ) back which
                                           makes me happy and brought too my eye a tear.

                                                I thank you mom again for you being you cause your one in a

  • Mother; greatest person in life,
    important like the air, 
    stronger than a bear, 
    a mother, a wife.

    Yellow tulips, red roses,
    all flowers mother deserves.
    And her steel nerves; 
    worth more roses and mariposas 

    Free like a bird of sky, 
    mother is fair and brave.
    Worth a thousand flowers.

    Wonderful like a butterfly.
    Her hug is like a heatwave.
    Mother, she must have superpowers!

    Everyday mothers for their young they care,
    whether orangutan, cheetah, bear or crow.
    But, mother, you care no matter how old we grow,
    because "forever my young you are", you declare.

    Like flowers by a gardener well cared for,
    our mother raises and nurtures us.
    Mother does never ever neglect us,
    not even when the prickly roses make her sore.

    Many words to describe your roles do exist:
    Carer, educator, protector and entertainer just to name but a few.
    Once a mother, a mother forever will be.

    Gift her roses or her favorite flowers, I insist,
    but happier mother will smile, when you say "Mother, I love you"
    This word of advice I guarantee.


    Edit: (not part of the sonnet) I want to wish, Happy mother's day to all the mothers :), though we should care and appreciate them everyday :)

  • Flower Of Heaven

    The light that is in the World is You, Mother
    Provides the warmth of love like a red rose
    Soothing the peace of the soul like a white rose
    Darkness away due to see the sacredness of your heart, Mother

    You walk tirelessly for your children
    wade through obstacles, look for hope
    without asking for a reply from your children
    Mother always gives a smile as proof of love

    Mother became a tiger to protect her children
    be a rose thorn for every Bee that disturbs the family
    become air to breathe their children in the world

    Mother became an eagle to watch over a cruel life
    being a shelter from the darkness like a drop of dew
    being an angel, protecting her child like the flower of heaven

    ** Happy Mother's day to beloved mother and to all mother's in the world  <3;) **

    In every winter night which was cold
    stayed awake a mother in a shawl.
    Picking up the toddler whenever he fall
    till he became tall and old.

    Very strong but weak within,
    strong like a tiger, a mother's limb.
    Setting a ladder for her cub to climb,
    that lioness prays for him holding high her chin.

    Mother being beautiful as a rose,
    and scented as the flowers.
    makes me wonder how fierce as cheetah mother goes

    The qualities of flowers within a mother arose,
    flower by flower garden she empowers,
    a garden in which her respect grows..

    happy mothers day to all the mothers in the world   :)

                                               For my mother dearest, I send a thoughtful gift
                                               Flowers, flowers, flowers, red roses by the score
                                               my mother loves them dearly, but she loves me more  o:)
                                               and her love grows within me and my spirits lift
                                               Mother Lion and Tiger and Bear
                                               Oh my! How so fierce a mother's love!

                                               who she shows such tender care
                                               My mother gave me life at her great expense

                                               but to my dear mother, I'll always be a king!
                                               which in this world makes such perfect sense

    Mother dearest Mother the flowers in your garden
    sweet smelling roses,beautiful roses and flowers of marigold
    are a great wonder to behold,
    which help the heart not to harden.

    Mother dearest Mother creator of Alpaca scarf by hand
    you taught me to quack like a duck
    now I am blessed with luck,
    I feel so wonderful and grand.

    Mother dearest Mother you are my honey bunny
    You make me oh so happy
    Your smile is always sunny.

    Mother dearest Mother you fill my tummy
    So I am never unhappy
    You're sweeter than honey.

  • In the year 1929 my mother was born in the city of Liverpool
    Bess is her name and she came when the roses bloom
    To my grandmother on a Friday 13th June
    Timid as a mouse but stubborn as a mule
    Mother chose to nurse and became a Wren
    With only a bouquet of flowers she married and became a wife
    Four children later and she had a hectic life!
    Wish I had appreciated my mother more back then
    Now I'm a mother and grandmother too I understand
    Her unconditional love and support  and nurturing me
    Means you can take life's up and downs and things unplanned
    No roses for her in this her 90th year I'm sending in the band!
    She has earned the right to sit and chill under a flowering tree
    With 12 grandchildren 5 great we all love you your the best in the land!

    I grew up on a farm with my lovely mother,

    Raising pigs, chickens, cows, and even a horse,

    Tending gardens of flowers, with roses of course.

    Endless fields we would work, one after another.


    We would milk the cows, just as our mother had taught,

    While mother would water the flowers with hoses,

    giving special attention to beds of red roses,

    Ignoring the tears in her dress where thorns had caught.


    At the end of each day, we were all so tired,

    But mother would still cook us a great big dinner.

    We would eat, then bathe, then off to bed we would go.


    As mother grew older, extra help we had hired,

    An idea we came up with (surely a winner!),

    Now she could sip tea, overlooking her meadow.

    A mother is in all ways abundant.                 

    A mother cat; sleek, clever and agile.           

    A mother dog; fun, loyal and able.                

    A mother owl; wise watchful and patient.      

    A meadow of spring flowers so fragrant.       

    The floral scent of roses bountiful.                 

    Flowers newly blooming and triumphal.         

    Windblown flowers waving in amusement.     


    A mother provides nature's legacy,                  

    In the beating hearts of offspring growing,        

    spreading fledgeling wings wide for all to see.  

    Leaving mother's nest; undefined, carefree,     

    confident, prepared and self supporting.           

    Mother silently, proudly sets them free.

    Thank you kindly, I guess I do not know what Italian Sonnet is then, I thought it meant that My poem had to be in Italic typing, what do I know, congrats to Everyone , :)

    What is the structure of an Italian sonnet? | Study.com

    https://study.com/.../what-is-the-structure-of-an-italian-sonnet.html

    Italian sonnets have 14 lines and are written in iambic pentameter. They are divided into two sections: the octave and the sestet. The octave of an Italian sonnet consists of the first eight lines of the poem. It follows an ABBAABBA rhyme pattern. The main focus, concern, or topic discussed in the sonnet is introduced in the octave.

    Okay now I know bout it, it had to be so many lines I guess. :)
