Single parent- by NDOU AI

The endurance of all kinds of hardships,
Didn't make you to throw out a towel on me,
Your ambition was to accomplish what you have started,
Criticism and hate is all you received. 

No body displayed sympathy to you,
Family and friends all changed like a chameleon,
They all turned their backs on you,
You are indeed the rock of Gibraltar,
Imploring and slavery became you way of survival.

Without education, money but a toddler to feed,

you became strong and never abandon me,
You became gaunt for my survival,
A single dime was of great value to you,
You sacrificed a lot just for a modicum.

Nothing lasts forever in this globe mother,
Today you are not looking to an infant,
But proudly to an independent soul,
A carthorse lifting a burden on top of your head.
