James Fraser Poet Free verse

It's What a Mom Hears

What do you want to hear that makes a mother a Seer
It's what a Mom fears, that makes her a caring soul

Whether it's the Bronx, Eastercraigs, or a Village so
It's what a Mom hears that allows a family to live

She may hear about her daughter, unwanted pregnancy
It's what a Mom hears, that can change for the better

Just imagine her sibling, involved with riots and such
It's what a Mom hears, to leave her child with thought

Said bullying in school, turns a parent into a scene
It's what a Mom hears, that throws their airs away

Such can you imagine, the loss of her child be
It's what a Mom hears, that's throws her heart astray

What do you want to hear that makes a mother a Seer
It's what a Mom hears, that can change our everyday

Sara Kendrick May 9, 2015 at 6:33 PM We can not know the pain that some moms hold in their heart for their child or children.(Of course, we do hear about the triumps in their children's lives).Great work..Thanks for stopping by..Sara James Fraser May 15, 2015 at 2:11 PM Moms are precious Sara, have a lovely weekend, James :)

Andrea Dietrich May 7, 2015 at 5:12 PM I like how you made her like a seer. I think she very likely IS a seer after being around her kids all their young lives!! James Fraser May 15, 2015 at 2:25 PM They're not far off being Seer's Andrea. They can certainly read their kids :) Have a lovely weekend, James :)
