Mother's Day tribute and reflections across a nation
An extended ode to Mother's Day cites reverence for mothers, the second Sunday in May, and the call to display flags. It recounts Anna Jarvis's origins, congressional action in 1914, and urges acts of kindness, visits, or communications with mothers, past or present, while weaving personal memories and historical anecdotes. The piece also includes a humorous 19th century anecdote about Col Gates on a sleeper train and a touching scene of a baby comforted by a colonel.
