Australian Children’s Poetry

The Medal for Mums by Graham Seal

Leave a comment
By australianchildrenspoetry May 11, 2025

This is the medal for mums.

For conspicuous bravery 
in the face of children.

For selfless service 
to every nation.

For unnumbered lifetimes 
of sacrifice.

But most of all,
for love.

For ever.
