Middle School Perspectives: May Poetry

    Mother’s Day Storm By Maya Weliky Mother’s Day Memories Flashing in my head like lightning My eyes watering like rain clouds She’s gone, but the memories are still there Thundering in my head Memories of giving my mother presents and cards Memories of giving her all my love and devotion Memories of taking her out to a nice dinner And snuggling her tight before bed Mother’s Day Memories Making my heart shake like an earthquake Making my emotions rage like a tsunami She’s gone, but the memories are still there Swirling in my head like a hurricane Mother’s Day Storm A Mother’s Light By Parker Reitshtein   A mother’s light is strong A mother’s light is powerful She gives you her love Powerful or not A mother’s light is friendly A mother’s light is subtle Her time and energy are for you Her love is peaceful A mother’s time is endless A mother’s love is timeless Her time Her love All for you A mother’s life depends on you A mother’s love depends on you Your wish is her command You and she, together forever A mother’s laugh depends on you A mother’s light is all for you What is Mother’s Day For? By Leora Cohen   Mother’s Day is no day for fools For Mother’s Day, you need all sorts of tools: Love, kindness, heart and joy Mother’s Day is no day for fools   Mother’s Day is all about love My mother is elegant as a dove She spreads her wings, preparing to fly Mother’s Day is all about love   What is Mother’s Day for? I don’t need to tell you any more It’s a special day That’s what Mother’s Day is for   The Streets are Alive By Sivan Safran When I walk on to the cold, hard pavement of the street, I feel different.
