The Invisible Me

The first morning rays kiss me,
I rush up and down, without any frown
Hustle and bustle is my favorite
Catching up with everyone's needs, I am lost.
No leaves, holidays, or breaks I demand
Unpredictable work day and night,
Sick, stressed, or worried, doesn't matter,
Deadlines and necessities, play on the mind.
Appreciation and respect are all I want,
But I am taken for granted, always.
Often overlooked and ignored,
Just one question I have to answer,
Oh, what do you do all day?
It may seem easy to the world,
But it's an art to balance a family,
Step into my shoes one fine day,
Yes, I am a homemaker,
The invisible girl, in every other house.
