A tribute to mothers



--
A mother's work is never done
From dawn to the setting sun
The cooking cleaning shopping and all
Is enough to make a grown man
Feel weary and small
If it weren't for mothers, we wouldn't be able
To do anything at all
Buttons would need sewing
The garden wouldn't be growing
babies would certainly cry
Without mothers we couldn't get by
No one to cook or clean
A house would look mean
Mothers deserve an award for all they do
You can certainly say one took care of you!
