Each Day.
Author: D Anthony, D-Rose

With each day I find myself changing
This life has become less simple now
The world around moves at a frantic pace
For me each day seems to slow down

I believed the answers were in my grasp
In those younger, innocent years gone by
I knew exactly what I wanted out of life
Conviction and dreams were in great supply

But something derailed me along the way
Something unexpected, far from sublime
My life is changing right before my eyes
I have begun to realize the passing of time

What was important has now lost significance
Like lofty ambitions that guided each day
My Christmas list grows shorter every year
My inner circle of friends seem further away

I care, but how much I'm not always certain
Indecision used to be terrain I did not know
Now that's where I frequently find myself
Often now, faith determines my life's flow

As bleak as the picture seems sometimes
I must see the good things along the way
I remember happy is mostly perspective
The sun sets, I smile, soon comes a new day

Have a great weekend. :-)

MOTHER'S DAY
Del Abe Jones

There were some different beginnings
To what we know as, Mother s Day
One woman, Anna Reeves Jarvis
Mothers Work Day Clubs , her way.

They focused on sanitary conditions
And provided medicines for the poor
They promised to care for all Soldiers
From both sides in the Civil War.

After that War that had divided
The new-found peace would take her
To healing families and friends
And she became a real peacemaker.

Then, in the Eighteen seventies
Something we could sure use now
Mothers Peace Day was started
By, Julia Ward Howe.

A famous woman of the time
Reformer, lecturer, and writer of note
The Battle Hymn Of The Republic
Is something that she wrote.

A woman suffrage association
Voted her their first President
And hers, the first suggestion
To have a Mother s Day event.

Then there was Frank Hering
In the year Nineteen ought-four
Of the Fraternal Order Of Eagles
Who claimed to open the door.

In Nineteen fourteen Woodrow Wilson
Recommending a Federal Mother's Day
Signed a joint resolution
That we now observe each year in May.

No matter who takes the credit
It was a long time overdue
To honor all those Ladies
Who gave life to me and you.

So, those who still have theirs
Should remember those times passed
And thank Her now for all those things
She s done for you in the past.

For those whose Mom is gone
It s a time to reflect and say,
Mom, I love and miss you,
On this, and every other day.

Our Mothers shape our being
And have an endless wealth to give
And She will be a part of us
For as long as we may live.

Have a wonderful Mother's Day weekend. :-)
