My Virtue Is My Duty

With the morning begins my day;
Different roles I'm ready to play.
Again and again I am perturbed ,
But nature and emotions are undisturbed. 
Silently, without a word, all needs I suffice;
Day to night, unsaid unconditional sacrifice.
What do I gain from all these duties?
Deteriorating my health and my fugacious beauty?
Still, I don't pretend, I take my job seriously; 
As a homemaker and a mother, working audaciously. 
If I don't follow my virtue as my duty,
Who else do you think will prove their loyalty?

P.S. This poem is inspired by my mother who is a diligent homemaker and the best mother on earth.
