An Ode

Women 

An ode to women 
The ones that carry us 
The ones that raise us
The ones that care for us
The ones that support us
The ones that picked us up when we fell down 
Moms, nanas, meemaws, grannies, mimis
So many names for the first ones who loved us
The women of our family
Are the reason for our survival 
They guide so we do not fail
But when we do they are still there.
