Deb M Poet Rhyme

-She Is Your Reason

She is your reason
To do right and be strong
To not embarrass nor shame her
So she feels secure where she belongs

Her childhood is your reason
One not to be marred
Letting your guard down
Memories become scarred

Your beautiful family is your reason
To stay focused and in control
Your highest priority 
Keeping your family happy and whole

I know its not easy 
You are trying so hard
Doing unbelievably well 
At not dropping your guard

We who love you 
Will always support and guide
You mean everything to us 
We stand proudly by your side

The truth is, it is an ongoing battle
Every day,  every week, every season
Just always, always remember
She …..is your reason!

Terry Flood September 17, 2025 at 3:41 PM A lovely write, Deb, and a lovely message. I started thinking ‘daughter’ and ended thinking ‘matriarch’… whichever or both is the case, a worthwhile nudge to those who might take ‘her’ for granted.
