Mother's Day Poem

For My Wife From Our Baby On Mother's Day

I wrote this poem on behalf of my 2-month-old son for my wife on Mother's Day. My wife is Irish (hence the name Eóin) and has done such a wonderful job of being a first-time Mummy that she deserves every bit of thanks and praise. I just know that if my baby could formulate some sentences, that's exactly what he'd write.

To My Mummy

Published by Family Friend Poems May 2011 with permission of the Author.

To my Mummy,

From the moment we met
And you held me so tight,
I knew I was safe
As you kissed me goodnight.

I woke up so often
And stumbled with feeds.
You never gave up on me,
Met all my needs.

Now that I'm almost
A three-month-old boy,
I want you to know that
You're my greatest joy.

They say that we look alike,
Same eyes and nose,
Better than looking
Like Dad, I suppose.

I love when we cuddle.
I love when we play.
I love that you sing to me
Every day.

Whenever I cry or
I poop or I pee,
Thank you for taking
Such good care of me.

Thank you for loving me,
No matter what.
Everything you do
To me means a lot.

Next time you hear me say,
"Ga ga goo goo,"
What I'm really saying is,
"Mummy, I love you."

Happy Mother's Day
Love,
Eóin xx
