Motherhood
From where she stood
Was colorful and bright
Petals everywhere,
Fragrance filled the air
With thorns down below
Cuts and scars she would only know
She held her babies tight
And led them to touch and feel and smell
And teach them as well
All the things that she knew
How to weather the storms
Appreciate beauty in all its forms
And how to nurse cuts
From thorns
Motherhood 
From where she stood 
She did all that she could
It was where she wanted to be
In the roses-
She was free
To discover what being a mother
Felt like
And she could see
The splendor and the pain
And she stayed
Just the same
Because motherhood, from where she stood
Was where she became 
More divine
Petals, fragrance and thorns intertwined 
And children in her arms
Navigating the harms
And capturing the good
From where she stood
Among the roses,
Motherhood.
