A Mother's Job [Triquatrain]

`````````````````````````````

With four mouths to feed and an endless growing need,
I feel like I'm missing out -
On living my way, not just living for today;
I just don't know what life is about.

It's not that I mind, for I have come to find
That I really do love all my kids.
Even though I growl and even though I scowl
At all the wrongs they did.

They are cute as a bug, even when they play with slugs,
Which still is gross to see
But I love each one; they are loads of fun
Gabriel, Andrew, Todd and Emily.
