Poem Summary

Mother...You are Strong is a poem written during a time my mother needed surgery. There is no struggle she cannot face. She needs to focus on only positive thoughts to overcome despair. This setback is only temporary. She has more to accomplish in her life.

"You Got This - by Love ~The Outcome

Mother...You Are Strong

Mother,

you are strong

there is no struggle

you cannot face.

Temporary setbacks happen

but soon move to a distant memory,

so, focus on positive things,

vision only good thoughts,

for you have much to accomplish.

I am here to remind you

how to use your strength

each step of the way,

helping you overcome

moments of despair,

showing you love

in a way,

only a daughter can.
