The Wife the Mama the Matriarchal Educator

The wife The mama The matriarchal educator She knows the value of school for her children She is their first teacher, is she not? Poverty Submission Laboring under awful conditions Being taken advantage of Receiving whatever you can get Goes away with education The wife The mama The matriarchal educator Wants her children to have the things Others in the family have never had. She wants them to have pride, but not be prideful. She wants them to learn kindness, and have time to implement it. She wants them to be generous, and have something to share. She knows education is the way, So she does whatever she can To bring as much education As possible to her Most cherished Possessions, Her Children.
