Soul Cry

"MOM"

Mouth dry

Unable to breathe

Was her symptom

Of agony

She trusted

Her people around

And walked ahead

With a silver crown

Suddenly,

Her place was

Boldly rejected

Her countenance strict

And yet little phased

Still inside

One could guess

Her plight

She was just a young lady

And her husband had died

The days passed by

With little help

The ones she trusted

Had turned their head

Still all these

Wouldn’t bring her down

She knew

She is not alone

And corrected her crown

Years passed

And she got bolder

Brought up two young ladies

Provided them her shoulder

Her strength was divided in them

And she could just imagine

How life would have been

If he would have been together

Alas!

Life is just

Unpredictable

Yet she was

Satisfied

The help she required

Covering her shoulders

Once cried and

Stood up next

Next to her

Was her strong help

Correcting her

Graceful Crown

Her Savior

The All-powerful God

Mothers are the hands that rock the cradles. And the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world. It isn't the seat of government but the foundation of family that decides the fate of man; that, and the will of God. I enjoyed the read.

I agree dear poet. When we learn we don't walk alone. We had gaon wisdom.
"Stood up next
Next to her
Was her strong help
Correcting her
Graceful Crown
Her Savior
The All-powerful God"

This is a gorgeous poem- this story is amazing and a real, breathtaking tribute to your mother. It certainly reminded me of the tough woman in my life. I love how you likened her to a queen, absolutely fitting. It’s sounds as if she’s been through it and more, but still remains a a strong, versatile queen. This is clearly full of a very deep and loyal love. Thank you so much for sharing.

Your dear mom appears to have faced up to adversities during her life which she was able to overcome. This is a nice tribute to her supernova.
