Ten Poems about Mothers
In this revised edition of our ever-popular mini-anthology, there are poems celebrating all kinds of mothers. There’s the mother who can’t help cooking for “several hundred million imagined diners” and the mother who tries to keep her children’s diet free of harmful additives. There’s also the mother whose special voice for reading bedtime stories is still a vivid memory.
What all the poems share is a sense of lasting love – the love that flows through the years between mother and son or daughter, surviving the twists, turns and surprises of our lives.
