MOTHER.
M—is lor the million things she told |
me;
O—means *hat she is growing old,
T—is for the tears she shed to save j
me;
H—is for a heart of purest gold.
E—’s for eyes with lovelight shining; !
R—is right, and right she’ll always be.
Put them all together they spell j
“Mother,”
A word that means the world |
;o me.
Tomorrow is Mother’s Day!
Throughout this nation those who
reverence their truest friend will wear
the white emblem signifying that
Mother is still remembered.
The companion of childhood days;
the sharer of our joys and sorrows;
the one who in adversity made sacri_
fices that we might enjoy the good
things in life; and as we advanced
along life’s pathway our future was
one of the things which interested her
most; for bet/ter or for worse, Mother
was always our staunchest friend;
did we transgress, we were forgiven;
did we do things of merit Mother’s
pride was beautiful to behold. When
the time came for the fledgling to
leave the nest Mother’s heart was
pained.
We left and in the turmoil of ex
istence we gradually drifted; drifted
away from the only true friend we
had, left at home waiting for the word
which announced our success or fail
ure, but which never came. Perhaps
today, some mother is still waiting for
the few words wThich would cheer her
declining years—
l
11
If you have an ageing mother
In the old home far away,
Sit down and write the letter
You put off day by day.
Don't wait until her tired steps (
Reach heaven's p f'.rly ga»te,
But show that you think of her
Before it is too late.
Tomorrow write that letter and
wear the white ernblew!
