Love's Chore

Poem Commentary

Mom's are not always appreciated like they should be. Sometimes Mom's might feel like they do for their loved ones because they just have to. The Basics yes, but all the other little things we do just because we love our family. Mom's could even feel a bit used, and taken advantage of. So next time your Mom washes your dirty dish, or puts your dirty clothes in the hamper. Tell her, "Thank You."

Love's Chore


All she ever wanted, what she needed, 
was to feel like the things she did mattered.

Once in awhile, hug her tight. Let her know she
makes everything alright. Kiss her cheek and just
say, "Thank You." Tell her, "I love you for everything
you do." Do something nice for her out the blue.
Listen to what she has to say, hear her point of view.

Just to show you care for all that she does with no
reminding will keep her smiling.

With pride and tender care she will keep doing all those
little things that mean so much. She will give it her special
touch. It feels good to be needed.

That's all she ever wanted.

My mother raised me alone, and sacrificed and busted her ass for me; infused me with a love for music and literature, and ALWAYS supported me and encouraged me to speak my mind regardless of the outcome. I'd kick own ass if I stooped to disrespect my mother, but then again, if I ever disrespected ANY woman, she'd more than likely beat me half to death, lol. See what you did, Sandy? Now I've got my phone in my hand, dialing my mother's house! Beautifully written and poignant, and another 10.

Poetry is what gets lost in translation.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
