A Mother's Journey

In shadows deep, where burdens dwell,
A mother's heart, a timeless spell,
Her journey etched in tears and pain,
A testament of love's refrain.

Through sleepless nights and weary days,
She walks a path, an endless maze,
Her spirit sturdy, never bends,
A fortress strong, her love transcends.

With trembling hands and tender touch,
She mends the wounds that hurt so much,
Her soothing voice, a calming breeze,
A harbor safe in stormy seas.

In darkest hour, when all seems lost,
Her strength emerges, tempest tossed,
A raging fire, fierce and bright,
She'll fight the battles, day and night.

Like Phoenix rising from the ash,
She spreads her wings, with flames that clash,
To shield her kin from harm's cruel gaze,
With love ablaze, in myriad ways.

Through sacrifice and selfless care,
Her dreams suspended in the air,
She nurtures dreams, their seeds ignite,
She fans their flames, ignites their light.

In every stumble, every fall,
She lifts them up, and stands tall,
Her unwavering faith takes flight,
A beacon guiding through the night.

With steady hand, she guides the way,
A compass true, through shades of gray,
Through storm and strife, she'll never tire,
Her love, a flame that won't expire.

For in her heart, a love untamed,
A love that's destined, never waned,
She'll raise them up, to heights unknown,
A testament of love, full-blown.

So let her rise, like Phoenix, soar,
With love unmatched, forevermore,
She'll shield, protect, and hold them near,
A mother's love, forever dear
