Now She Can Rest

At the rise of the sun, 

Her day had started. 

Comforting kisses to her creation, 

Progressing to the changing place. 

Her lullabies like the ocean, 

Bedtime stories are her meditation. 

 

  From bottles to sandwiches, 

Covering cuts with band aids. 

Always prepared for the field trips 

Carrying all the weight on her back. 

Best company for sleepovers, 

Her love is far better than the others. 

 

Mom of teen who knows what’s next 

Having a successful youngster is her biggest thought. 

Buying their first car is her promise, 

But she's nervous to let go. 

motherly tears drop at graduation 

Best mom on earth. 

 

All her nurturing was worth it in the future 

She did her big one you've got to admit.
