THIS IS FOR SOME ONE----MY MOM DID IT WITH SEVEN...4BOYS AND 3 GIRLS! Hard Times Poem Raising children is no easy feat especially when theres no money or help from a father. How Am I © Sherri Bauer How am I going to explain this to you? I have four children and dont know what to do. I have had less than eight hours of sleep all week. I am so tired of yelling, I can barely speak. 1, 2, 3, 4 they all start to bawl. Im by myself there is no one to call. How am I going to feed them today? Send me some help God, I am trying to pray! I cant work anymore Im on hour fourteen. No where to turn, I wish I could scream! How am I to pay you, Im all alone. Shes sick, I couldnt call they disconnected the phone. Wont someone please give me a hand? I cant afford it. Why dont they understand? How am I going to explain sacrifice? All theyve had to eat is peanut butter and rice. His birthday is special; I wish I could buy it. Ive explained this already! Please just be quiet. How am I wrong when I try so much? I dont want to go I cant afford lunch. Everyone says Im getting thinner. I took money from their accounts just to buy dinner. How am I going to ask my Dad? After all the little talks weve already had? Children please stop fighting with one another, I know its a mess; I have no time to clean Mother! How am I to ask them not to be bitter? I need to work, but cant find a sitter! I wish they didnt seem to be so sad. I think all they need is just one good Dad! How am I going to look them in the face? Were getting divorced, he found a new place. Trouble with her, just go away! No, I dont mean it; its OK if you stay! How am I going to give you some money? Youre getting older, youll have to work Honey. Theyre all grown up, but still having trouble. I want to protect them, keep them in a bubble. How am I going to care for myself? I cant even say, Ive still got my health! For too many years, I would sit alone and cry. Please Lord I need to know just, how am I? Source: Poem On How Can A Single Mother Manage Alone? How Am I familyfriendpoems/poem/how-can-a-single-mother-manage-alone#ixzz2mS0JizXH Family Friend Poems
