Look closer
You know who She is…
Hidden under wrinkles beautiful face of a teenager
Concerned eyes staring at memories of passing years
It’s Her
The woman who is important in your life
She devoted her youth to showing you the world
She gave up her dreams so that you can follow yours
Patient, loving and forgiving when you were growing up
People look at her
and see just a wrinkled face.
Look again,
She was young yesterday.
