Nurture
contradictory in every sense of the word
feeling strong but also weak
fulfilled & complete, yet rushed off your feet
your heart bursting with pride, lucky to get through the day
and keep everyone alive
deep love & connection, breaking through the misconceptions
an instant bond & knowing just what to do
when really most of us don't have a clue
we are winging it, learning as we go.
and that is one thing each mother needs to know
believe in yourself, you are all that they need
find joy in the chaos, you'll find fun guaranteed
although the days feel long
and you feel you are doing it all wrong
i promise, you is where they belong
you're worthy its true there ain't no one like you
their nurture, their comfort, their home
keep going mama you got this
time will pass and one day you will be grown.
