Her Armor

An Emily Wright original poem.

This pandemic has highlighted how little, we as a society value our working moms and how easily we expect more from them.

Her Armor is about working moms and their resilience in the face of the pandemic. With the ever changing restrictions, child care was a constant concern. They endured. With no choice but to carry on, doubt and uncertainly weighted heavily on their hearts while everyday they dawned their armor needed to see their children through. Many women left the work force sacrificing their careers and the efforts to break that glass ceiling. The pandemic has left its mark on us all, but especially mothers.
