Mother's Day 1983 ~ A Poem by Wendy


Typed up ... on a typewriter, this poem/page has been saved for 40+ years (added to family history in 2024). Wendy has written a few other poems, as have other Westras over the years (check out the Poetry and Other Westra Written Words tag).  

As the image isn't always easy to read, here is a re-typed transcript:

Sometimes, I think we do not understand.
That the job of a mother is not always grand.
We may think that it is just shopping for pleasure.
When really it is mostly for us beyond measure.
We may think it is relaxing, watching the newest soaps,
It is not always so - don't get up your hopes!
We may think it is always such fun games and play
But it's also cleaning, cooking, and mending all day.
So now if you know what moms really do ...
How about telling her "I Love You"

"I Love You Mom ! ! !"  ♥Wendy (age 15)
