A poem from a stepdaughter to her stepmom.
I Treasure My Stepmother
People come and then they go
That’s how it goes, I know
But you showed me an exception to the rule
My stepmom, you’re a rare, exquisite jewel
You came into my life when I was low
Surprised me when love was all you’d show
I wanted to fight it, wanted to duel
I tried so hard to find any bit of fuel
Yet you always reap what you sow
You drew me into your loving flow
You harvested my frozen earth with your gentle pull
And from my hardened heart, love answered the lull
You showed me there’s always more than I know
More hope, more love, more room in which to grow
I can only hope and strive to be just as phenomenal
My stepmom, thank you. I love you. You’re exceptional.
