And So To Be A Mother
You put yourself aside.
Shoulder many burdens,
Grasping onto pride.
Often times our pockets are filled with hidden tears.
And from our lips a million prayers to get us thru the years.
Mothers give and mothers save and when it’s said and done,
There is no stronger anchor than a Mother’s love.
Nothing lasts forever and when our lives draw nigh,
The legacy we leave behind shines in our children’s eyes.
Whether born of the womb, or born of the heart
Our babies – Our reason to live.
And even if there’s nothing left
Somehow, The Mama will give.
