Happy Mother’s Day
I remembered my mother’s copy of Poems of Childhood by Eugene Field. It was probably the most used in a set of classics that she kept. She would read them and then I would read them and I was so happy recently when she presented me with the copy of his verse.
A few years ago I was asked to present a Mother’s Day sermon for church and I of course spoke of my mom and life with my two sisters and sharing parenting with my mom as she now raises my two younger brothers.
During my sermon I of course included some verse by Eugene Field. Here are both of them: Good-Children Street and Pittypat and Tippytoe.
You can find (and download a pdf copy of) his poems at PoemHunter.com.
I hope the poetic works of Eugene Field bring you much enjoyment as a mother and child of God. Have a Happy Mother’s Day.
I will end this post with a podcast of the poem This Is Your Day by Louis Untermeyer.
