Because a child believes she can,
on faith, she does.
Having a core that will bend,
when life throws out curves.
Arms that give hope, security, love,
while teaching the reality.
A Mother is gentle iron.

Creative metaphor you used here. Liked the use of space, and the sentiments expressed so well in these lines; easy to read and understand.
