Her Will
- by Sally
Lonely words on doorstep the day he walked away.
Left behind a shattered woman, two children out at play.
Which way to turn? She pondered as the night grew darker still.
A withy woman she was not, yet, had to find the will.
Sidewalk beneath her footsteps. each day a search for work.
Had to find a way to live - could not remain a clerk.
Cashed in the life insurance to attend the school at night.
Never would she give up - no, not without a fight.
Now, a nurse at thirty, she's made their house a home.
Proud of her accomplishments and doing it on her own.
Two children, steady, strong are they, she takes with her great joy.
The love and faith of three - the one did not destroy.

Roses are Red
Violets are Blue
It's better to be a single parent
Since you have more to do
You don't rely on the other parent
to do all of the rest
Someday your children will love it
for what you do best!
I know you feel like crying
and you've been through a sight
but someday when you're sighing
you'll realize your decision was right
The night holds promises
Tomorrow is a new day
Your children are worth it
Every single penny, in every way!

Get a copy of the lyrics to Terri Clark's "She Didn't Have Time". The song is great. All about a woman left with this child and the next 5 yrs of hr life as they go through different things. Another option is to check out Chicken Soup for the Single Parent's Soul. Its full of great inspirational material.
