Mum Poem Print

This mum poem is a witty, affectionate verse about mothers and all they do for us.

Our unique A4 mum print makes the perfect gift for mums, whether it's for a birthday, Christmas, mother's day or even a new parent.

Written by Bespoke Verse poet Joanna Miller, this poem appeared in VOGUE in December 2012.

Whether she's a fairy cake baker, a tireless clapper or a list compiler, everyone will recognise the heroine described in 'What is a Mum?'

The poem is printed on the highest quality card which measures H30 x W21cm (A4). It is unframed and presented smartly in cellophane with backing board behind.

The taupe text reads:

What is a Mum?

A weaner & musher, a milky tooth brusher

A rocker & feeder, a storytime reader

A fairy cake baker & fancy dress maker

A wiper & washer & bad habit squasher

A dirty sheet changer, a room rearranger

A keen stain remover, a wielder of hoover

A peeler & cooker, appointment booker

A loyal defender & Christmas card sender

A playdate arranger, alerter of danger

A suitcase packer, a dishwasher stacker

A ‘be quiet’ hisser, a cuddly kisser

An early riser, a birthday surpriser

A list compiler, a proud parent smiler

A talented wrapper, a tireless clapper

A lavatory flusher, a praiser & gusher

A listening ear, a good refereer

A source of a fiver, a free taxi driver

A smoothie blender & broken heart mender

A consummate shopper, embarrassing bopper

A grocery bagger & homework nagger

That’s what makes a Mum!
