Written in praise of single mother’s who have to do the work of two people in order to have a happy, healthy and successful child.
A SINGLE MOTHER’S SINGLE REASON
A single mother
Makes her child
With four hands
But supports it with only two.
She fights a fight worth fighting.
The fight is not without pain.
Her pain is not without love.
Her love defines her life.
Single mothers
Have a single goal: To see their child smile.
They have a single reason to keep fighting:
To see their child succeed.
Time is limited in the hourglass of life.
A single mother pours the sand through her hands
Molding every second spent into bricks to build her child
The strongest foundation that she can.
