Hands that pulled up anklet socks
and buckled leather shoes.
That rolled my hair in pin-curls
for Sunday morning do's.
Homemade cakes they baked and iced
for family and friends.
They hung out clothes upon the line
held fast by wooden pins.
Mother's hands were full of love;
gentle was her touch.
Her hands were busy dawn 'til dark
because she loved so much.
By Karen, in memory of Mother
Your love has given me much joy and comfort...your kindness has often refreshed the hearts of God's people.

Beautiful words of tribute to your Mother or perhaps many other mothers as well.
KAREN, WHAT A SPECIAL POEM IN LOVING MEMORY OF YOUR MOTHER. A MOTHER'S HANDS ARE ALWAYS BUSY, DOING WONDERFUL THINGS FOR HER FAMILY. I SMILED WHEN YOU SAID 'HOMEMADE CAKES THEY BAKED AND ICED,' BECAUSE I JUST BAKED A MOIST AND YUMMY STRAWBERRY CAKE, AND MY SON MADE THE WHITE ICING. OUR MOTHERS ARE ALWAYS IN OUR HEARTS, AND YOUR MOTHER RAISED A VERY SPECIAL DAUGHTER. : )
