I don many hats and aspire to be

The master of all the sides there are to me

I am a mother whose greatest joy

Is a bright and talented teenage boy

I am a cook, with a flair for fine cuisine

My table setting fit for the pages of a magazine

I am a maid, ready with mop in hand

To wash debris from the floor, where ever it may land

I am a nurse, tending to mishaps and scares 

Dressing minor cuts and scrapes with tender loving care

I am a chauffeur, too many destinations to name them all

When it comes to providing a taxi I'm always on call

I am an accountant, juggling numbers to make ends meet

Some days it's not an easy job, it's really quite a feat

I am a poet, penning verse and fancy prose

The inspiration for my next piece, nobody ever knows
