As a Word Press user, I decided to check out the Daily Post Challenge: this time, it was to try something new. I used to write what I called poetry quite often. I’m certain this is a meager attempt, but it was fun to do and very refreshing to change the way in which my thoughts go down on the screen! Perhaps I’ll really stretch my limits and add some photos and links, since I do have that techno-phobia problem. Here it goes…
Sitting on the floor
Uncomfortable, but not wanting to change
Hungry after good exercise
Getting more nourishment from reading and writing
How precious is this time
Just me
Hissing baby monitors capturing peaceful child breath
After a day of questions, stories, laughter, whines, thanks, and a constant commentary
Silence
Now, the rush of thoughts in my mind can flood the page
Now, the swirl of prayers, praises, songs, musings, revelations, and ideas can escape
These moments are mine
Finding that place between thinking and sleeping
The days of a mother are so full of life, sound, and every sense
Evenings are when I can take those rich moments back out
Examining, remembering, savoring, giving thanks
Pouring it all out so my heart and my mind can be all filled up again
Tomorrow.
This is a wonderful mother poem! I look forward to more poetry from you.
