    Some one came knocking
    At my wee, small door;
    Some one came knocking,
    I’m sure—sure—sure;
    Walter De La Mare (1873–1956)

    “Mother” has always been a generic term synonymous with love, devotion, and sacrifice. There’s always been something mystical and reverent about them. They’re the Walter Cronkites of the human race . . . infallible, virtuous, without flaws and conceived without original sin, with no room for ambivalence.
    Erma Bombeck (20th century)

    O’er her warm cheek and rising bosom move
    The bloom of young desire and purple light of love.
    —Thomas Gray (1716–1771)
