L’ infatigable by Joanne Maignan

Remind me what you are made of again?
I thought it was only from one rib
You are stronger than metal and more sensitive than an egg
You bend so many times but never touch dirt

Do you ever take time for yourself?
Do you even know what a warm bubble bath feels like?
House chores, dependents, and billions of other things are your
Priorities

Does anyone ever compliment you for your hard work?
Every second and every minute matter to you
Why don’t you rest and have a glass of wine

L’infatigable, L’infatigable
Words can’t even define you
The one and only “L’infatigable”

  1. Great poem! This is a wonderful example of apostrophe: when a poet addresses someone or something absent as though they are present.
