And then I was a mother

I was a kid, a sister, had brothers.

Then I was a mother.

I was a dreamer, at times a drifter,

And then I was a mother.

I was a daughter, a wife, a lover.

Then I was a mother.

Had success and failure,

And then I was a mother.

There was heartache and loss,

Then gains and a flutter.

I was a reacher and planner,

And then I was a mother.

I knew everything but nothing,

Something or another.

I was just me and you an idea,

And then I was a mother.

Thank you for teaching me,

Thank you for being.

Always there in my consciousness,

Because I am so happily your mother.
