It’s a rough journey,
brutal terrain, ordeals galore
pregnancy, childbirth,
and parenting.
You constantly push yourself back
to ensure they thrive,
not only survive.
I did it all for my little girl,
to the best of my ability,
being her safe harbor,
a shiel against all horrors.
She was watching,
with gratitude for the love,
'thank-you', she was planning.
She learnedto hold crayons.
and painted me in many forms,
in all her arts, I show up,
it means I am swirling,
in her sweet, loving brain,
as knight in shining armor
holding an exalted position.
It is the ultimate honor,
a reward for pain endured,
paid back innocently.
