#POATTIC-7 #SuperWoman
.
I’m Teddy! Been living on your bed,
For the past thirty years.
Watched you grow, your wings spread,
Saw you flourish, felt your fears.
.
I’ve admired you sewing your wedding dress,
To save a few pennies.
Mourned with you when, due to stress,
You lost your first baby.
.
Cried with you when you soaked your pillow,
All through the fights,
With your lover, your fellow.
Yet, each morn you woke up bright.
.
Marvelled at your amazing willpower,
When he lost his job due to a nervous breakdown.
You took on the reins, toiled each hour.
You always had your feet on the ground.
.
Now I am your daughter’s cuddly bear.
I catch you staring into the mirror.
Superwoman? I dare say I do not care.
You are an amazing woman, and that’s just super!
