I am a woman,
    of no importance.
I am invisible to the world,
    I won't leave a dent
    in the future or the past.
(depending on where you're looking from)
I am not wise,
    no-one seeks my advice
I am not the great love of any ones life
    though I am a wife.
I am a mother
    beautiful, beautiful children
look at them, they are the sum of my achievements
but all animals can breed and raise their young.
My basic instincts are strong
    that is all.
I am a light shade of grey,
    semi transparent.
It would barely be noticed if I disappear
Though dinner might be late
Dinner, breakfast, lunch, dinner, Tea or coffee ?


Sometimes chopping onions really makes me cry..
I am a woman of no importance.
