A Mother Who Writes
/This is a poem about a mother who is a writer.
————
Days are short while nights are long
Singing made up silly songs
She is a mother who writes
While the tiny baby cries
She looks for jobs with sleepy eyes
She is a mom who writes
Blogging about the night before
While her kids nap on the floor
She is a mom who writes
Focusing with lots of noise
Hearing screams from little boys
She is a mom who writes
Working late into the night
While her household sleeps in slumber
She is a mother who writes
Living on caffeine through the day
Typing vigorously on a short essay
She is a mom who writes
Gazing at laundry on the floor
Her thoughts constantly at war
She is a mom who writes
To clean or write plagues her mind
She has two jobs she's been assigned
She is a mom who writes
Writing at a slower pace
Being a parent she'll always embrace
She is a mom who writes
