2peas is a good site to get poems. :) I've been collecting some poems for my mom's scrapbook. Here are some that I liked that I'm going to maybe use LOL :) Hope they help maybe a little bit :)
"Dear Mom, Across the miles through the years no matter what happens inside, we will always be together, and remember, you alone were my very first friend"
"Mom... I love you more than you love me...because you only loved me part of your life... but I loved you all of mine"
We laugh, we cry, we make time fly, best friends are we, my mom and me."
A MOTHER......
When you're a child she walks before you, To set an example.
When you're a teenager she walks behind you To be there should you need her.
When you're an adult she walks beside you So that as two friends you can enjoy life together..

A Mother's Love
There are times when only a mother's love Can understand our tears, Can soothe our disappointments And calm all of our fears. There are times when only a mother's love Can share the joy we feel When something we've dreamed about Quite suddenly is real. There are times when only a mother's faith Can help us on our way And inspire in is the confidence We need from day to day. For a mother's heart and a mother's faith And a mother's steadfast love Were fashioned by the angels And sent from God above.
A part of you has grown in me, together forever shall we be, never apart, maybe in distance, but not in heart.
From the Beginning...
Mothers give the greatest gift, that we on earth can receive. A life to live and love to give; the day she does conceive. She carries me close, inside her. Her heartbeat I do hear. Her voice sounds like Angels singing- The first sweet sound I hear. Her touch is; Oh so gentle. So secure I feel inside. Only wondering how much longer, in her womb I must abide. Then the day comes, when I no longer need to stay. I only want to be outside- in her arms I wish to lay. I twist I turn, I push I shove, I open my eyes and look above. So scared I feel, I just want to hide, then her voice I hear, so close by my side. Then I see her- The most Beautiful sight I've seen, reaching out for me- her eyes full of tears, yet still a happy gleam. I snuggle and cuddle, as close as I can. As she kisses me gently, and then takes me by my little hand. I love her instantly, as much as my small heart can bare. Bundled up in her arms; I grasp a strand of her soft hair. I wrap it in my hand, So, so very tight. wanting to make sure that- she is with me throughout the night. I settle in quickly, and slowly drift off to sleep. As my mother carefully watches over me, and counts each toe on my feet. I see her in my dreams, I feel her in my heart. And I know this feeling will be here, in life, even if we are apart. So Mother, when you think of me, know that this is true; When I think of Undying Love, Mother I am thinking of YOU!

You can see it in their eyes
in tender hugs and long good-byes,
a love that only moms and daughters know.
You can see it in their smiles
through passing years and changing styles.
a friendship that continually seems to grow.
You can see it in their lives,
the joy each one of them derives
in just knowing that the other one is there...
To care and to understand,
lend an ear or hold a hand
and to celebrate the memories they share.
MY MOTHER.
My Mother, my friend so dear throughout my life you're always near. A tender smile to guide my way You're the sunshine to light my day.
