Hats

 

She was changing. There was no doubt about that.

She did so whenever she wore a different hat.

Sometimes she was a cheerleader, a role model, or a guide

But no matter what she never left their side.

She’d run along beside them pushing and encouraging

Building up their hopes never discouraging

She’d go home and change into the role of mother and wife

Where she’d tirelessly cook and clean and love without strife

Other times she’d change and wear the hat of friend

Where she laugh and cry and sometimes have to defend

Sometimes she’d change into the role of leader

Where she’d go wherever anyone would need her

No matter the changes made for the various hats she wore

She was always prepared for whatever was in store

No matter the role she played she remained the same at her core.
