Pick Out a Birthday Card
Selecting a birthday card for your mom on her birthday doesn’t have to stop just because she is no longer physically here. This is especially true if it was something that you enjoyed. Feel free to continue this act and head to the card store to find that perfect sentiment. You can then place the card next to her ashes or tuck it away in a memory box.
Write a Poem or Letter
Writing a poem or letter to your mom is a wonderful way to fee close to her. Don’t worry about if it is perfect or what exactly it says, simply write what is on your heart. After the letter or poem is complete you could tuck it away in a special space, share it with other family members, or even release it with a balloon.
Take the Day Off
Sometimes you just need a day off. A day off from work, from chores, and from the day-to-day life. Celebrate your mom’s birthday by taking the day off and spending it just being happy. Do things like watch movies with your kids, go to the park, go for a long hike, or create and cook a special dinner. Whatever makes you happy, do that.
Plant Some Flowers
Moms and flowers just go together. What better way to celebrate your mom than to plant flowers? These could be her favorite flowers or maybe just flowers that are in her favorite color. If you don’t have a yard or green space, simply purchase some potted flowers to decorate your space with.
Explore Her Favorite Hobby
If your mom had a hobby that she enjoyed, there is no better way to feel close to her than participating in this hobby. Maybe she loved to cook, crochet, play tennis, hike, or do yoga. Whatever it was, try it out for the day.
Final Thoughts
Losing a mom is probably the most challenging thing we will ever have to face. It can seem unbearable at times and even if you have healed, days like her birthday can bring up all the difficult feelings once again. Instead of trying to hide from or ignore this day, let yourself celebrate it. Doing things that make you happy and that you mom loved is a wonderful tribute to her spirit after her direct cremation in Whitefish Bay, WI.
Special Mom
My mother I love,
She came from above.
Gentle and kind,
A beautiful mind.
Today is her day,
With a birthday bouquet.
Her smile so warm,
Our hearts will transform.
I wish her the most,
With this little toast.
Happiness and health,
Internal wealth.
By Martin Dejnicki
Unconditional Love
Happy birthday, my mother and friend,
Since I was a child, you would always defend.
Your love has always, been unconditional,
Even when, my moods were transitional.
I cannot forget, all the things you have done,
Through actions and words, my esteem you have won.
You taught me to live, with courage and passion,
With the less fortunate, I learned your compassion.
Today is your birthday, I hope you dance,
This celebration, I’m sure you’ll enhance.
From the depths of my heart, I just want to say,
You are my mother, and my love I display.
Greatest Mom
Thoughtful lady, that works so hard,
Always been there, my dear lifeguard.
Places others before herself,
Proud of pictures on her shelf.
When in pain, maintains here smile,
Multi-tasking, she’s versatile.
With all of this; time she finds,
Her love for us, constantly reminds.
On her birthday, just want to say,
I don’t know how, I will repay?
Eternally grateful, I hope she will see,
The greatest mother, she will always be.

Mom You're The Best
Mom, to me you are the best,
You gave me life and all the rest,
You're getting older, but you're still the same,
You have all the love, you don't need fame.
I wrote this poem, thinking of you,
Just remember, as you get older, I do too.
So don't be ashamed that you're 33,
I'm sure on my birthday, you'll be thinking of me!

Your Birthday Gift
For your birthday miss
I would like to give you this
A great watch from Swiss
Or that sweet trip to Paris
You are so sweet
With that great heart beat
Mom you are the gift of this sweet home
So I would like to take you to Rome
You know that we wish you a great birthday
As we wish for more sweet years
By Khaoula Ouakar
Well, this mom birthday poems, mentions just a few things. I'm sure you would need a book to list the rest. I think the most important thing is to just constantly remind your mom how much she means to you and how much you love her. Thinking of that, I better call mine right now:)
Thank you Mom
For nine months, I was just a part of you,
Little by little, I grew inside of you.
The morning sickness you didn’t really mind,
Cause from day one you are already kind.
When my life is dark, you serve as my light,
When I am sad, you always hug me tight.
When I was inside of you, in me, you already believe,
You sacrifice a lot just to let me live.
I hope when it’s my turn to become a mom,
I can achieve at least half of what you’ve done,
Cause you did not just give me a life,
You also taught me to fight my own strife.
Today’s my birthday, but it should be your day,
Cause you’re the reason why I am here today,
So in this very special day of mine,
I wanna say Thank You to you, my Mom.
By Mayie Cachero
Happy Birthday

All the happiness they have in store,
And because I appreciate you,
I hope you have many more!

Funny Birthday Poem for Mom
This next verse is a funny birthday poem for mom that is intended to make your mom smile and laugh.
Attack!
These birthday wishes,
you clearly deserve.
Relax in your chair,
and simply observe.
Family and friends,
will sadly approach.
Pity those wrinkles,
about aging they'll coach.
Even the dog,
shall drop his old head.
The wisdom of aging,
there's no need to spread.
But this is your day,
so let's forfeit the gloom.
Make sure it's clean,
go pick up a broom.
Whatever happens,
just try to enjoy.
You need some creams,
not a book, nor a toy.
But since you're my mom,
I take it all back.
Please take your meds,
or you may actually attack.

Just please make sure your mom has a very good sense of humour if you decide to share this verse with her.
Daughter to Mother Birthday Poem
Most mothers and their daughters share a very special relationship. The next poem is an attempt to express that special bond they share and may be given to any mom from her daughter.
My Loving Mother
Today is your birthday,
I'm so happy to say.
My wishes and love,
I'd like to convey.
For being your daughter,
I'm much more than glad.
With you in my life,
I rarely get sad.
Only good things,
I hope dearly for you.
May all your sweet dreams,
continue to come true.
But first let's have dinner,
and openly talk.
It brings me great peace,
when together we walk.
I'm so happy to celebrate,
your birthday with you.
My love will never end,
and shall always be true.

At the park that I jog at, I often see mothers and their daughters walking and chatting. It seems like they always have something to talk about. They share advice and are completely open with one another. That just reinforces the strength of their relationships.
A Birthday Poem for Mom from Her Son
This birthday poem may be given to a mother by her loving son. When I was brainstorming the ideas for this poem I simply thought of a few things that I would personally like to say to my mom on her birthday.
Helpful and Kind
My very first thoughts,
are helpful and kind.
Whenever I think of you,
they enter my mind.
You're helpful to so many,
your kindness you express.
So much love in your heart,
you naturally possess.
A dear mother like you,
I'm not sure if I deserve.
It brings joy to my life,
when your heart I observe.
I love you mom,
as we celebrate your birth.
I'm so thankful and glad,
we share time on this earth.
by tree.cards
This last one was a bit shorter than the previous ones, but I still hope it's just as effective. Honestly, I can't wait to share it with my mom. However, I may need to switch up the last verse if I want to give it to her prior to her birthday (on a random day).
A Birthday Poem for a Deceased Mother
This last birthday poem is for a deceased mother. It wasn't easy to write at all. I did get a bit emotional.
Happy birthday mom,
I miss you so much.
Your kisses and hugs,
and tender soft touch.
I know that you're looking,
down from heaven on me.
Those tears on my face,
I'm sure you can see.
Today is your birthday,
and I don't want to cry.
But after all this time,
it's still hard to say bye.
The moments we've shared,
are clear in my mind.
The courage to go on,
I'm hoping to find.
Happy birthday mom,
I miss you so much.
Even from heaven,
my heart you still touch.

I hope you had a good time reading these birthday poems for moms, and feel free to share any one of them with your precious mother.
