Mother Warrior
Steel in her gaze,
Softness in her touch,
Battles quietly,
Never asks for much.
Shield up in daylight,
Guard through the night,
Standing firm,
Bathed in soft moonlight.
Fierce is her love,
Boundless her care,
Sorrows she hides,
Hope she wears.
Storms might rage,
Skies might fall,
She fights with grace—
Her love, her all.

Inspiration Behind
As I crafted this poem, I was inspired by the silent strength that mothers around the world display every day. Their courage often goes unnoticed, yet they stand as the bedrock of their families, wielding love as both shield and weapon. This poem is a salute to those everyday warriors who, with gentle hands and iron will, shape the future in the quiet corners of their daily lives.
