Admirable Woman
She pushes through
and no one has a clue,
why she works so hard.
Her feet are scarred
from wearing heels.
Behind her desk, she feels
successes were achieved;
kicking her heels off, relieved.
Tired and sore she sits
at home, not quite calling it quits.
She rarely refuses, and chooses
to slip into her running shoes.
For the day is still not over;
her children are looking over her shoulder.
In spite of how she feels, aches, and ills,
feelings don't pay her bills.
She knew when and where
to wear each pair.
