In Life She Stood With One Child Adrift

Sharda Mishra posted under PenMuse-58 Poetry on 2023-12-14



In life, she stood, our steadfast light, Through day, night, joys, and struggles tight. Her love, steady, raised us with grace, Her gaze, a tale of hope, embrace. Life's ebbing tide, my mother stood, a steadfast wood, Some thrived, some lost in struggles, but in life, she stood. One child adrift, a restless sea, Her worries echoed, endless plea. A mother now, with mine in tow. My life's hues, love, worry, they grow. In time's thread, care weaves, a gentle touch, soft and swift. My eternal love endures, for one child adrift. *** Note: With this poem I have tried to capture the essence of maternal love and endurance. It reflects on a mother's unwavering presence and support through life's challenges, and how this legacy of love and resilience is passed down through generations. I invite all the  readers to appreciate the depth of a mother's influence, seen both in times of hardship and in the enduring strength she imparts to her that one child who struggles amidst other successful children.     Penmancy gets a small share of every purchase you make through these links, and every little helps us continue bringing you the reads you love!
