motherhood

From the moment you first hold your child, A love unlike any other takes hold, You'll dance through joy and tears, A beautiful journey, your story untold. A world where time slows down, And the smallest moments become grand, From the first smile, to the first steps, Every milestone, a reason to stand. A piece of your heart, breathing on its own, Your entire world now revolves around their light, A love so powerful, so selfless, This bond transcends day and night. A selfless devotion, a bond unbreakable, A mother's heart is one that can't be tamed, She'll move mountains for her child, A love so fierce, her pride unashamed. A mother's pride, a double-edged sword, Her child, her vulnerability made flesh, She'll sacrifice her own dreams and desires, For their happiness, her only wish. A mother is a goddess, a warrior, and a friend, A love that knows no bounds, that knows no end, Her heart, a fortress, a shining star, An eternal flame, a beacon, near and far. Constance K Zhakata
