Lei Strauss Poet Narrative

Moms At Home

There is no single thing to say
Mom can't do anything at home.
For she is just far more incredible
than any woman we know.
She wakes up early morning.
But no one told her so.
For she loves to prepare breakfast
and do the house chores.
She likes to wash plates,
Does laundry at the backyard.
But she expects nothing in return,
Not a money nor an award.
She exhausts herself from day to night.
But she keeps her body pain,
Just to see her kids sleeping so tight.
Anxiety kills her mind
Whenever her child gets sick.
She'll do everything in her power
Even it has to make her body weak.
But who tells her to do all these?
Those tiring chores at home
She does everything not to please.
One thing we know about mom
She does everything not because 
it's her role and responsibility.
It's because of love that connects
Since the day that you were born.
