A Poem For Single Mothers
this
would have been a poem celebrating
that single mothers are strong
but more than celebration
what we need
is
to be seen
for helping hands to extend
themselves
far beyond our reach
to single mothers
shoulders heavy
within the weight of the world
for every time you've heard
"you're so strong"
may this poem
be answered prayer
and the reason
community says
"how can I
lighten the load
so you
don't have to be"
