    LIFE'S FIGHT

    How do I know what this world holds,
    Do I care to stay or do I wish to go.

    Holding onto what keeps me here,
    Breaking down into tears.

    Without me here how would their lives unfold,
    I love so much they are my soul.

    The time is now there is no other,
    To fight for those who love each other.

    My children take me from day to day,
    Without them, like a rose I would wither away.

    I fight for my life,
    From my health and my mind.

    For my children and myself,
    This is OUR time.

    This is Life’s Fight,
    And I plan to win.

    For I am a mother of three,
    There is no greater gift then them.

    I must say, that was amazing and very touching. I can tell you love your children very much.

    No greater love and a fitting poem for today. Remember that you can only be here for them if you take care of you.

    NICE

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
