The Story of the Birth of Princess Jada Simone Sweeting
A Mother's World
Anticipation dances non-stop as
she prepares for that one who will
in time slip from her womb.
The essence of being her child's
bridge over troubled waters becomes
her main focus from beginning to
end.
She loses herself in his/her every move.
Wanting to be there at all times is her
true desire.
She fights to accept that he/she must
grow into the image of adult.
Sounds of sirens when he/she is not
around sends her heart into a song of
rhytms and beats that would make a
stethascope tremble.
What may be her last until next payday
is alot to you and your GRATEFUL!
And she prays quietly every night that
she never has to report her child missing
or that the phone doesn't ring at 1:00 a.m.
in the morning and the voice on the other
end says, "Sorry to bother you so late
Ma'am, but your son/daughter has just
been killed in an accident or by a stray
bullet or by his/her own hands or murdered."
See a "MOTHER'S" world is more complicated
and challenging than the world in which we live
and unless you are a mother yourself, then its a
world you'd never UNDERSTAND!!!!!!
