Ode to Them
Krissy Wahlers
Who?
Do you wake up
And decide to take on the role?
Is there a certain kind of person
Designated for this vital job?
What? What is needed?
Sure, any female can,
But is there more to it?
Do you need mental supplies,
As well as physical ones?
Where?
From where does the courage
Come from?
Are you born with it?
Or this knowledge,
Does it just show up?
When?
Do they know when
They are ready?
Does it take much physical preparation,
Is it your mind instantly ready?
Is the heart always anticipating
When this momentous event takes place?
Why?
