My not so plain Jane

A poem

I know a superwoman, a Jane

Her heart, as broad as the heavens

Soul, as bright as the pearly gates

Able to drag back the light from the blackest nighttide

Propelling the show, behind the shadows

The thunder that silences the noise of the storm

A pink carnation sprouting in the Savannah

Adding some color to our daily grind

An alpha tigress when the wolves come to prey

Appearing mundane yet so valiant

Such power, such lustre

Strenght so salient

So humane Oh mother

Cruising through

chores in perpetuum

seeming so trivial

Menial they say

Same works that make

the ordinary possible

Scarcely able to get a break

yet to all of us available

I never saw it before

How did you make it seem so easy?

Now I catch glimpses, albeit previews

I thank Jehovah papa

I get to walk half a mile in your shoes

The road a bit smoother cause you paved it

My steps much lighter cause you cushioned them

Bouquets and accolades will never suffice

You deserve so much more Mother

For now, enjoy my heartfelt words for you

My Superwoman

My not so plain Jane
