From a Girl to a Mother
From a Girl to a Mother
She once was a girl with stars in her eyes,
Chasing soft dreams beneath open skies.
Laughing with freedom, gentle and bright,
Dancing through mornings and whispering nights.
She carried small hopes deep in her heart,
Learning through endings, healing each part.
With every sorrow and joy she would grow,
Like rivers that quietly deepen and flow.
Then love placed a child in her trembling hands,
And suddenly life had new sacred plans.
Her heartbeat grew softer, her spirit grew strong,
She learned that true courage is patient and long.
The girl who once searched for where she belonged
Became a safe shelter, steady and strong.
With lullabies woven in warm midnight air,
She carried her child with infinite care.
Though seasons may change and years gently fly,
A mother’s love never fades or says goodbye.
For deep in her soul, the young girl still stays
Now shining through motherhood’s beautiful ways.
