To Be a Mother

Aching ,as if she has crushed bones But that is not what she cares about She worries about her little bundle She just wants to hold him tight Her body has no strength to move But all she wants is to just look See the face of her baby for the first time See whether her dreams and reality rhyme All she has gone through ,is rewarded By that first touch ,with that first hug It takes too much to be a mother But it is so special ,to be a mother
