"Nobody knows of the work it makes
To keep the home together,
Nobody knows of the steps it takes,
Nobody knows -- but Mother."

A Recipe for a Very Dear Mother
Take a cup of thoughtfulness
And add a lot of love,
Blend with smiles as warming
As the sunshine from above,
Add a cheerful spirit
And, of course, a heart that sings
And also the ability
To laugh at little things,
Stir in lots of tenderness
And understanding, too
And there you have the recipe
For mothers dear as you.

"I had a mother who read me the things
That wholesome life to the boy's heart brings -
Stories that stir with an upward touch,
Oh that each mother of boys were such!
You may have tangible wealth untold;
Caskets of jewels and coffers of golf.
Richer than I you can never be -
I had a mother who read to me."
