Mother's love equates to mother's burden - a Quadrille

Mother's love equates to mother's burden
To see to the success of succession of siblings
Raw in their quests of comforts and motherly protection
Peppered along the way with thorny issues

Often a good word of appreciation
is not adequately verbalised by those privileged!
(44 words)

Kim's at d'Verse's Quadrille #35
and to include the word  -  pepper

    I think it's a burden we love to carry.

    Yes, hank, mother's love can be a burden 'Peppered along the way with thorny issues' - but it's worth it!

    The burden that can be heavy and sweet at the same time. But that's life for all of us, isn't it?

    Very imaginative use of "Pepper", Hank.

    A word of appreciation is always welcomed ~ A mother's burden is felt as she carries on ~
