She Is Doing The Best She Can
As the dawn breaks
As the birds sing
She stirs in her sleep
As her day will begin
As the child softly breathes
As her lover groans
She creeps out of bed
Precious time alone
She sits in the silence
And cherishes much
The magic of sunrise
The song of the thrush
She sits with her brew
And breathes in the new air
Her energy rising
To nourish and care
Not much time for herself
Her flock must be tended
She’ll cook, clean and prepare
For what needs her to mend it
And as her life grows
Her duties will change
But that time on her own
Will precious remain
And then comes a time
When self-care is required
She sets herself boundaries
A new life aspire
She has done her work well
She has paid her dues
She still loves you dearly
But desires something new
For her life is too precious
To not got to plan
As past, now and forever
She is doing the best she can
