Day’s End, by Sue Crisp

DAY'S END

The day has been long for the two of us.
Me, holding down a job and raising a young
child as a single mom. Her in pre-school,
trying to adjust to missing her mom.
Finally, the day is done and it's our time
together. The wearing hectic day has taken
its toll on the two of us. Holding my Hija Mia
as she sleeps in my arms, makes it all
worthwhile.
