We wish all the mothers among our readers a happy Mother’s Day.

Ibu
Tertumpahnya darah
  mu di bumi sakti ini
Menzahirkan
  generasi muda
    menjunjung naluri
      bakti

Kasih sayang mu
  menegur jati diri
Sepeninggalan mu
  menitis bahasa sepi
Tetap hadir
  semarakkan
    keyakinan hati

Ibu
Pengorbanan mu ini
  menggetar sejarah
Kalbu ku bangga
  gelincir kata2
Semoga kehidupan
  ku ini tidak
    menghampakan
      harapan

Happy Mothers Day to all Mothers.

Most children wish Mothers Day to their Mothers and express their love to her by giving them flowers or gifts or taking them for high cost luxury restaurants or holidays little realizing that at their advanced age not many mothers may be able to enjoy.

Based on the reports like other sentimental days
Mothers Day may be perceived to have become commercialized where material gifts may be a form of showing love for mothers when all most mothers may wish for or need is the love and respect of their children especially in their senior years when they may be in need of not only material support but mostly moral support and care.

Not a pessimist but reality as may be common in the world.

Bless all
