Ocean Deep
As she dips her toes in the ocean her mother shadows her every dip protecting her from dangerous waters.
As she picks up sea shells her mother shadows her every step protecting it from sharp edges.
As she plays in the bright glimmering sun her mother covers every inch of her in sun block, to cover her beautiful skin.
As she builds a sand castle, her mother protects her from getting sand in her brown eyes, which look at her with such love.
Ocean deep is the love that a mother has for a daughter. And only when her daughter has her own child will she ever understand.
A mother is a fighter, a protector, a mentor, and her daughters strength.
