Roles

My various and precious roles in life,
mother, daughter, sister, friend and wife.
Sometimes I grapple, how to juggle?
Some days seem a steep struggle.

All my roles are dear and I wish to tend,
But time and energy are finite in the end,
some I see seamlessly roles blend.
I wrestle to navigate this curvaceous bend.

Which role should I prioritize?
How should I categorize?
Not let one act monopolize.
Balance, play and strategize.

From none do I want to flee.
Each role is nourishing and dear to me.
Some days I can manage, like a busy bee,
On others, in my sweet solitude I find absolute glee.

Some roles pull me in opposite way(s),
Balancing priorities is not an easy play.
Is there a price to pay?
Relations need time, attention and energy to sway.
