Short Mother's Day poems for cards

  • Roses are red,
    violets are true,
    of all the world's moms
    I'm glad I got you.

  • You held my hand
    when I was small;
    you hold my heart
    now through it all.

  • For every hug
    and every prayer,
    thank you, Mom,
    for always being there.

  • Some give flowers,
    some give gold —
    I give you love
    too big to hold.

Poems from a daughter

  • I borrowed your smile,
    I borrowed your grace,
    I see you each morning
    in my own face.
    And when I am grown
    and gray like the sea,
    I'll still be the girl
    you made into me.

  • You braided my hair
    and mended my heart,
    you showed me that love
    is a lifelong art.

Poems from a son

  • I'm taller now,
    my voice is low,
    but I still need you,
    Mom — you know.

  • You taught me to stand,
    to be honest and kind;
    the best parts of me
    you left behind.

Cute poems for kids and toddlers

  • Here are my hands,
    so small and new,
    I made this card
    especially for you!

  • One, two, three,
    Mommy loves me!
    Four, five, six,
    lots of hugs and kisses!

  • My mommy is sweet
    like honey and pie;
    I love her as big
    as the stars in the sky!

  • I can't buy flowers,
    I'm only three,
    so here's a big hug
    with love from me!

Poems that make you cry

  • One day I'll be the one
    who waits up through the night,
    who kisses every scrape
    and leaves on the hall light.
    And then I'll understand
    each thing you never said —
    the love behind the worry,
    the prayers above my bed.

  • The years ran fast,
    your hair turned white,
    but you are still
    my morning light.

Poems for church and Sunday service

  • For mothers who pray
    and mothers who teach,
    for hearts that keep loving
    beyond their own reach —
    we thank You, Lord,
    for the gift they impart;
    bless every mother
    and keep every heart.
