MOTHERING

She, the whole family on her shoulders, carries
She, all her people, good and questionable, about worries
She is the fountain of emotional strength
Her presence in the family is an immense wealth
Lose her and you lose the light and laughter
And many good traits go to the slaughter

II
She takes a house and makes it a home
All in their fall consider her a foam
She carries, gives and maintains life
…protects, cares and shelters her own
If man is the skin, she is the bone
So let’s all together give Mothers their five!
For all their help even in their strife

Just a simple Ghanaian trying to find the best in our society. I may be fun, I may be interesting, I may be funny, I may even be foolish or intelligent, but it is all based on the mood in which you find yourself. I believe our minds make us who we are. Know that, pain, no matter its 'unbearability', is transient. Unburden or delight yourself for a while in my writings please. And all corrections, advice and opinions are welcome. Know that you are the king, queen or royal on this blog. :)
