Written In LoveA Poem by Alicia Hirshey"God could not be everywhere and therefor he made mothers."-Ali Gay
Motherhood calling Saving your place Always caring Keeping us safe Little children Each in your care Throwing away yourself To be there * Iconic lessons To me you would send Teach me now To learn from them Oldest girl Leader of fun This was my calling Sense day one. * Mother, grandmother Loved by all Written in messages I have left on your wall Forgiving deeds Taken so lightly What would cause the fighting * Fountain of knowledge I can never replace I long for those days Life was simple We were so sure Having you here Wasn’t a chore. * Protecting us 8 As a bear for her cubs Standing your ground When push came to shove Throwing yourself To keep every one of us * Brothers are older Sisters are young Life’s greatest lessons Teach us as one Beautiful savior You saved me from there * Motherhood calling Saving your place Always caring Keeping us safe Little children Each in your care Throwing away yourself To be there * Iconic lessons To me you would send Teach me now To learn from them Oldest girl Leader of fun This was my calling Sense day one. © 2011 Alicia HirsheyAuthor's Note
