The mother in me surpasses
every other portfolio.
My boys come to my mind
be at home or elsewhere.
They may need this, I conjure
put efforts to bring them,
Before they ask I do most
fall short when I go out of money.
They were not too many
a handful did creep in
enough to bring the roof down
with shouts, screams, and exchanges.
I did resign those times
with a heaviness.
Misty eyes marked the day
they fluttered with unmeasurable velocity
Tainted with blood , my
bitten lips quiver.
Brushing aside both with a smile
I resolve to keep away from them.
Again, it is the mother in me,
subtly surfaces.
Placing me in my original track
I forget the count as how many times
I am back
