MOTHERS DAY CARD

Morning starts early, before it gets light Opening cupboards, to see what’s in store Teachable moments, with wrong versus right Hope grabs the car keys, then heads through the door Early bird children, are making their way Ready to take on, another school week So many hurdles, to climb day-by-day Destiny journeys, down these terraced streets Another story, of work’s imbalance Young hungry children, get so tall, so fast Confidence takes it's fences and chances Armed with new shoes but, how long will they last? Roses or chocolates, say life can be hard Demanding much more, than words on a card.
