Tonight, my sleep will be restless.
Long gone are the days when the earth’s heavenly lays:
Be it nature’s parade at the daybreak,

A strong, relatable poem that most readers can easily empathize with I think. You can see how painful it is for the mom who have to navigate such a tough situations like that both internally (to best managing her kid that's dealing with the ADHD issue with all its struggles) and externally (having to control her own emotions in response to all the noisy and careless judgments by other people who really don't know about the condition with all its challenges).
