Not her struggle
to overcome abuse
Not her dignity
during the divorce
Not her survival
after he cut her off
Not her determination
and positive attitude
Not her loyalty to me
by writing letters
No, none of those
make her my hero
the way her daughters
always come first
is like a medal
pinned to her heart.
Your mom sounds amazing, Linda! You are so lucky! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeletePretty, pretty poem about your mom.

All in all, I would say your Mom is fortunate in having her daughter understand so well. Brought tears to my eyes.
