Sculptures of mothers and daughters
tender works of art
cast to be remembered
this day
this loving day.
Mature women remember
mark birthdays on calendars
keep boxes with ribbons ready
cards already signed.
Fine art paintings
reproductions of the moment
in time
that will always be held dear
and ever so close to the heart.
Daughters will always be treasured
butterflies and roses
swings in the afternoon
daisies to pluck
to see is they have found true love.
Mary Cassatt
gentle pastels
mothers and their daughters
living lives of peaceful days.
So tender each mark
pastel colors of grace.
Sculptures of mothers and daughters
made from bronze
cast forever
defining the sentiment
forever to last
forever token of caring.
Mothers reading to daughters
Humpty Dumpty illustrations
Mary Poppins
and Disney on Ice.
Fairy dust on pillows
Hans Christian Anderson
now Harry Potter Tales
lovingly read
to daughters by their mothers.
Teen age years come and gone
girls meeting the women they would become.
How quickly it all did pass.
Now with babes of their own
creating poses like Mary Cassatt.
These days to be treasured
flowers in a jar
or pressed between a book of poetry
remembered and written down.
These kind days
leaves on trees
soft breezes sing
childrens chatter remembered
little girls on swings.
Through tears
longing to take those day back again.
Keep them safe inside your heart.
Artwork of mothers and daughters
tokens of glorious days
held close.
Sculptures of mothers and daughters
