Mother

"Mother"

 

When a mother gives birth; a life is created, & the life that she once knew; is now completely emancipated. 

 

Everything she does; she now does because of him, her thoughts of what the world should be; are now about her kin. 

 

She starts to look at things from another point of view; education is a must, morals not to be construed. Her child becomes her best friend; and her friends are now so few. 

 

She wakes up at different hours; bottles, diapers, crying is her que. Despite of her exhaustion; she does it all because of you..

 

As he grows she becomes his biggest teacher. The role of a mother; is never one from the bleachers. She's actively making pitches; catching balls & taking swings. She has to maintain her femininity; while still maintaining strong within. 

 

She is her child's biggest leader. Always there to push him on. Sometimes her words may sound like insults; but it's because her belief in him is strong.

I wrote this poem with my Pookie & Tone on my mind. Life is "life" because of the greatest gifts that God gave me; my two sons. ❤️
