a poem about me and mom


THE QUEEN

Don't worry, mom, about me,
I am your princess,and one day
A queen I would surely be!

I will challenge adversity's wrath,
I will continue to embrace life,
And walk fearlessly on my chosen path.

Now it doesn't matter
What I have been through,
Now it doesn't matter
What the people think of
My different view.

I won't anymore be mediocre,
Mundane, submissive or pushover,
holding my own, I will shine
With my own individual lustre.

I am your daughter, so will be tender,
Yet won't be called 'the weaker gender'.
I will honestly do my share
With love for all and genuine care.

With my power I will attain glory,
Yes, I'll certainly create history!

ahhh I am a mother, and I suppose a Queen
over my family brood :) ...at one time that is :)
I like this awesome line:
"I will shine
With my own individual lustre."
it's empowering & beautiful,
and you do shine Portia!!
