For Her Children...

poem by: Godfrey Georges
Written on Sep 07, 2017 

It's for the few, and the proud. 
Oft' broken-hearted, yet vain.
Yet she is able to laugh so loud,
despite inwardly suffering pain.
Giving birth in spite of sorrow,
choosing instead to heed the call.
Of a promise for a tomorrow,
that her child will grow very tall.
For this she lives, her proud legacy
nurturing the virtues of love and integrity 
That her child will continue a lifelong journey
Of living...in spite of life's worries.
