Symbol Woman-2


This young woman is sweet like her sweet kid-
Sweet colour, sweet smile, sweet talks all amid
Toiling morning of kid getting to school-
Like the late sun from behind the clouds cool
Peeking from the blanket the waking kid
Just delaying, dragging time to forbid-

Think of that mom's utmost force with no skid
Herself to get to office and the kid
In tact on time be dropped well fed at school
Whilst simply watching her the dad so cool
