    I'm not clear what you mean. From the title I'm guessing you want help with writing a poem for your mom's 60th birthday?

    Why not do a 'parody' of the song from The Sound of Music, My Favourite Things?
    then mention all the things in the hamper!

    Tell her how you feel. Those poems are always awful and cheesy.
