This page is dedicated to my Mom,  Neona Owen.  
Happy Mother's Day.  I love you!  
-  Jamie

 

 

 

"Happy Mother's Day" means more
Than have a happy day.
Within those words lie lots of things
We never get to say. 
It means I love you first of all,
Then thanks for all you do.
It means you mean a lot to me,
And that I honor you. 

But most of all, I guess it means
That I am thinking of
Your happiness on this, your day,
With pleasure and with love.

The Hand that Rocks the Cradle 
is the Hand that Rules the World

WILLIAM ROSS WALLACE 

Blessings on the hand of women! 
Angels guard its strength and grace, 
In the palace, cottage, hovel, 
Oh, no matter where the place; 
Would that never storms assailed it, 
Rainbows ever gently curled; 
For the hand that rocks the cradle 
Is the hand that rules the world. 

Infancy's the tender fountain, 
Power may with beauty flow, 
Mother's first to guide the streamlets, 
From them souls unresting grow - 
Grow on for the good or evil, 
Sunshine streamed or evil hurled; 
For the hand that rocks the cradle 
Is the hand that rules the world. 

Woman, how divine your mission 
Here upon our natal sod! 
Keep, oh, keep the young heart open 
Always to the breath of God! 
All true trophies of the ages 
Are from mother-love impearled; 
For the hand that rocks the cradle 
Is the hand that rules the world. 

Blessings on the hand of women! 
Fathers, sons, and daughters cry, 
And the sacred song is mingled 
With the worship in the sky - 
Mingles where no tempest darkens, 
Rainbows evermore are hurled; 
For the hand that rocks the cradle 
Is the hand that rules the world.
