Poem

She works for near minimum wage
At an establishment under attack
By the well-to-do who misunderstand
The need for any work she can get
Work that is less than fulfilling
Still rewarding in one sense or more
It barely keeps food on the table
But it keeps her off the welfare roles
And that alone keeps her pride intact

She is punctual and ready for every shift
Even if asked to work overnight
Her work ethic is an example for all
Though many around her slack off
And chide her for making them look bad
But even more daunting are the customers
Some that so arrogantly look down on her
Because they think they’re so much better
They have no idea of her needs

Still she smiles at customer after customer
Sincere in her quest to provide the best
Representation of the establishment in which
She strives hard to make a life for herself
And her infant, fatherless, innocent son
Thank God her mother helps take care of him

When her shift is over she makes her way
To her old, in-need-of-repairs pickup truck
Off to her second source of income
Part-time she works cleaning condominiums
Then it’s online to work her college classes

She knows life is tough and times are hard
She’s doing all she can to make it through
Determined to reach her goals on her own
And make a better life for her little one
She presses forward on the road of survival
A road that she chose
A hard road
But holding tight to God’s hand
A road to success
