POEM: Make sure you cherish Mum every day

For many, the sending of a card or gift to their mother this Sunday is not an option, although they are often in their thoughts.
This poem may reflect the thoughts in many minds.

                       Mother’s Day
With a pretty bow tied around a bunch
And I may even take her out for lunch
Again it’s that special day of the year
To show your mum how much you care
But we cannot all perform that simple task
Hiding all of your regrets behind a mask
She’s not there for advice, and that’s so sad
You now know the best friend you ever had.
