Mentor Mom

Mom was never one her duty to shirk;
giving her heart, mind and soul to her work.
If called for, she'd give our tails a swift jerk;
she’d tweak our arms when we drove her berserk.

Author's Notes:  A warrant officer is responsible for training
underlings and carrying out certain missions within the army.
