Mother of Greatness


She wakes up, starts the day 

with a cup of coffee and confidence.

She showers away all the stress and pain of

Yesterday. 

She clothes herself with garments that give her strength, 

that give her dignity.

She sets out on the road of another long day, but does not fear,

For She knows the life She lives sets 

The example

for her young daughter, that hopes to one day 

walk in her shadow of greatness, and walk in her footsteps of

Perserverance, and inspiration.
