The hard work that women do, particularly our mothers is often taken for granted. My feeling is that we should honour the hard work they do/have done for us. So here I thought I would send my regards to all those hard working women and share a beautiful poem...
Women's Work by Maya Angelou
|
I've got the children to tend The clothes to mend The floor to mop The food to shop Then the chicken to fry The baby to dry I got company to feed The garden to weed I've got shirts to press The tots to dress The can to be cut I gotta clean up this hut Then see about the sick And the cotton to pick. Shine on me, sunshine Rain on me, rain Fall softly, dewdrops And cool my brow again. Storm, blow me from here Fall gently, snowflakes Sun, rain, curving sky |
