			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mother&#8217;s Day is a day meant to honor all Mom&#8217;s out there, so nothing could be better than sharing a few funny Mother&#8217;s Day Poems with your mom to make her laugh! </p>
<p><img src="http://poemsbox.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/mother-sheep.jpg" alt="" title="mother-sheep" width="300" height="225" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-215" /></p>
<p>One of our favorites is called <a rel="nofollow" href="http://poemsbox.com/goto/Momisms_The_Things_Moms_Say/214/1">Momisms: The Things Moms Say</a>, which is pretty funny and cute and sentimental as well. This poem goes on to list many of the phrases that all moms say, such as &#8220;Go pick up your room&#8221; or &#8220;don&#8217;t jump on the bed&#8221;. Really, it&#8217;s sweet, and funny, go read it!</p>
<p>It can be tough to be funny sometimes without being offensive, so it&#8217;s important to make sure that whatever you write is something that your mother will really like and not take the wrong way! The last thing you would want to do is upset your mom on Mother&#8217;s Day!</p>
<p><strong>Thanks Mom</strong></p>
<p>Happy Mother&#8217;s Day Mom!<br />
Today I&#8217;d like to take the time<br />
and thank you for all the great things<br />
you&#8217;ve done!</p>
<p>Thank you<br />
for cleaning off the walls<br />
when I would draw on them all</p>
<p>Thank you mom<br />
for telling me<br />
not to pick my nose.<br />
Thank you mom,<br />
for always washing all my clothes.</p>
<p>And thank you mom,<br />
for those times<br />
you drove me everywhere<br />
and all the Christmases<br />
when you gave me underwear.</p>
<p>Thanks for the advice<br />
to always wear sunscreen<br />
and thanks for teaching me<br />
how to scrub a pot clean.</p>
<p>I might not have told you<br />
all those things back then,<br />
I might not have realized<br />
someday it would be for my own good<br />
so I want to make it understood:<br />
I LOVE YOU!<br />
Happy Mother&#8217;s Day! </p>
<p><strong>Mom Knows Everything</strong></p>
<p>Mom knows everything,<br />
how long to boil an egg,<br />
how to kiss a boo boo on your leg<br />
they know how to see you<br />
from another room<br />
they know how to dust off<br />
cobwebs with a broom<br />
Moms know how to make you laugh<br />
and they know how to<br />
stop you from being sad<br />
mom&#8217;s know what things<br />
will poke your eyes out<br />
always looking out<br />
to make sure you&#8217;re safe<br />
Mom&#8217;s are the best<br />
at knowing everything!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you love your brother? Then you will like these poems for a wonderful brother you can write, share, and give to the guy in your life who&#8217;s always been there for you</p>
<p><strong>My Brother, My Friend</strong></p>
<p>My brother, my friend<br />
the guy who will stick by me<br />
until the very end</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve known you<br />
since we were little kids<br />
and I have such great memories<br />
of all the things we did<br />
sure we&#8217;ve had our fights<br />
like siblings do<br />
but no sibling rivalry was ever enough<br />
to come between<br />
me and you</p>
<p>I&#8217;m glad you&#8217;re my brother,<br />
you&#8217;re a wonderful guy<br />
I hope this sappy poem doesn&#8217;t make you cry.</p>
<p><strong>The Best Guy I Know</strong></p>
<p>You&#8217;re the best guy I know<br />
and that&#8217;s because<br />
you&#8217;re my brother</p>
<p>You helped me<br />
be who I am<br />
you made me<br />
come out of my shell like a clam<br />
and I don&#8217;t really<br />
know what I would<br />
have been without you</p>
<p>As a kid we did<br />
all the things all kids do<br />
and now I am glad<br />
that I spent that time with you</p>
<p><strong>Good Big Brother</strong></p>
<p>I am most proud of my son<br />
for his ability to be such a good big brother.</p>
<p>He&#8217;s wanted to be a brother<br />
since he was three years old,<br />
asking Santa Claus to bring him<br />
a baby sister for Christmas.</p>
<p>Well, I don&#8217;t know what Santa was thinking,<br />
but sure enough he got not only one<br />
baby sister, but two.</p>
<p>And he loves to hold them,<br />
loves to play with them,<br />
he likes telling them stories<br />
and telling them it&#8217;s all okay</p>
<p>he&#8217;s such a good big brother<br />
he shares his toys and his snacks<br />
and doesn&#8217;t even mind when<br />
his sister topples over<br />
the blocks he stacks.</p>
<p>Yes, a good big brother,<br />
your sisters are so lucky to have you.</p>
<p><strong>What a Wonderful Brother Does</strong></p>
<p>A wonderful brother remembers its your birthday and calls you<br />
when it seems like everybody, even your own mother, forgot.</p>
<p>A wonderful brother takes the time to look under the hood of your car<br />
and tells you whether he can fix that weird sound or not.</p>
<p>A wonderful brother can lift up all kinds of heavy stuff<br />
and help you move a sofa bed up a flight of stairs.</p>
<p>A wonderful brother has a lot of friends he likes to see<br />
but still takes the time to show you he cares.</p>
<p>A wonderful brother is someone just like you.</p>
<p>Do you have a great brother that you love? If you want to write a poem about him, share it with us in the comments below.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://poemsbox.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/poems-for-parents.jpg" alt="poems for parents" title="poems for parents" width="270" height="203" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-151" /></p>
<p>Writing thank you poems for parents is a great way to show your appreciation to them for any reason or occasion. Parenting is not an easy job and so showing your gratitude will always be appreciated. Whether you&#8217;re still a kid or a grown adult, these parent thank you poems can help share exactly what you feel. </p>
<p><strong>Thank You Mom and Dad</strong></p>
<p>Mom, Dad,<br />
I want to say thank you<br />
because you&#8217;ve taught me how<br />
to appreciate someone when<br />
they&#8217;ve done something great for you.</p>
<p>You&#8217;ve taught me to be kind<br />
so every thing I do is filled with kindness<br />
You taught me to respect<br />
and to judge only with blindness</p>
<p>You&#8217;ve shown me how to do<br />
everything, you&#8217;ve taken me<br />
from a crying hungry baby<br />
to a grown adult.</p>
<p>Your love has shown me<br />
how to love others<br />
Your patience has helped me<br />
to know waiting is a virtue</p>
<p>Thank you Mom and Dad<br />
I love you</p>
<p><strong>Single Parent Poem</strong></p>
<p>It wasn&#8217;t easy<br />
being on your own<br />
and having me to care for</p>
<p>I know you weren&#8217;t always able<br />
to do or give me all the things<br />
you wanted.</p>
<p>But you did your best<br />
and we made it through<br />
and I&#8217;m so very blessed<br />
to have someone like you.</p>
<p><strong>I Wanted to Make You Proud</strong></p>
<p>When I spilled the bucket of water<br />
all over the floor<br />
trying to help you mop<br />
I wanted to make you proud</p>
<p>When I left the ice cream<br />
out on the counter and<br />
made my very own Sundae<br />
I wanted to make you proud</p>
<p>When I pasted hearts<br />
on paper with glitter and glue<br />
that got all over the house<br />
I wanted to make you proud</p>
<p>When I gave you a really big hug<br />
and left sticky hand prints<br />
all over your clothes<br />
I wanted to make you proud</p>
<p>I know the things I&#8217;ve done<br />
can sometimes be frustrating<br />
but as a kid I just didn&#8217;t know</p>
<p>So I hope today you know<br />
how much I love you<br />
and all that I&#8217;ve done<br />
so you can be proud.</p>
<p><strong>Thankful for You</strong></p>
<p>I am thankful<br />
that I had parents like you<br />
someone who&#8217;s always there<br />
for me to talk to</p>
<p>I am lucky<br />
that you taught me<br />
so many good things<br />
that I can do good things too.</p>
<p>I am happy<br />
that of all the parents in the world<br />
I have you.</p>
