Tracey Pollack Poet I do not know?

Poem About Me

I want to write a poem about me
First and most importantly  I'm a mother of three
Although at times we may disagree  
My love for them I can guarantee
And I  will always give it for free
Our love so strong it helps me write my poetry  

Pain and heartbreaks  we've caused each other  
But at the end of the day I'm still proud to be their mother
This kind of love I could not feel for another
Over protected I'm sure they felt like they would  smother
They are  all grown up now  with lives of their own
I feel my life purpose might be gone

My job was to make sure they can stand on their own feet
Watching  them grow up was bittersweet
Filled with pride that cant be beat
Seeing the adults they've become what a treat
A mother's love is above all and elite
Then came grand babies  oh how sweet
Three grandchildren now making me complete

Looking back over this poem about me
You can see being a mother became my identity  
Any regrets with that there are not any.
