To be a Mom

How do I plant the seed,
Of the things we really need?
To be a mom and teach it right
With out the hassles and the fight,

To teach my child what's right and wrong
To show them what it takes to be strong.
To appreciate the things they have
To know the difference of what's good or bad.

How do I help this flower grow?
Do I let it grow alone?
Or should I save it from the storm?

Will my efforts help to bloom,
The simple act of cleaning their room?
Will the weeds I pull today;
Help my posies listen and obey?

Or do I let the weeds grow tall and wild;
And watch them grow around my child?
Do I wait and see if they;
chop them down to clear the way?
