A Traditional Wife

Some women
ridiculed her
because she
chose to be
a traditional wife
staying home
cooking meals
having kids
attending church
loving her family

The women who
ridiculed her
had no husbands
worked insane
career hours
thought they
were superior
to her being
just a stay at
home wife
thought she
sold out to
being only a
wife and doing
what she wanted
in life

Maybe what
she did in
being just a
wife raising
kids right
was more
important
in this life
than trying to
be more and
buy more
and having
less time to
raise kids
right.

Age 80. Cancer survivor since 3 years ago. Work out 3 times a week. Ride my exercise bike 2 hours a day. Live a solo reclusive life. Retired a year ago from working with the elderly in a nonprofit. Started writing poetry a little over a year ago; most poems I write are fictional but some are not. Spiritual with a permanent spiritual experience. Write poems on many subjects. Always researching for many of my poems and because of my unquenchable thirst for knowledge. After reading and hearing about many near death experiences and death bed visions, I believe death is the ultimate awakening and the relocation of a lifetime. You may believe differently, but you have the right to be wrong -- I'm just messing with you. :-)
