Don’t Blink

The tiny infant you hold so close. Will soon out grow those adorable clothes. Don’t blink Those sleepless nights and midnight cries Will soon be a teen, bright and wise. Don’t Blink. The toddler with the headstrong flare. Will soon, no longer need you there. Don’t Blink. Those trenches of motherhood can seem so deep.Continue reading “Don’t Blink”

The Unwritten Sin

I have not written a poem in some time. Recently, I have had this one looping through my mind. The constant struggle of productivity VS waste of time. However, how can one put limits on life’s little joys. Why do I feel like I need a purpose just to write? As if having love forContinue reading “The Unwritten Sin”

Beyond the Horizon

I wonder what is just beyond the horizon. Just beyond what my eyes can see. Is it as magical as they make believe. Or was it just a way to keep us disconnected and busy. When you can not believe the media or things people say. When you can not believe science and what theContinue reading “Beyond the Horizon”

Looking Glass

I look into the reflecting glass. A part of me still sees my past.Another sees the parts that last. Some features are familiar, some are not. Subtitles lines of battles fought. Choices I made and those I did not.From the looking glass I can see.Only what my mind can perceive. In my own reality.

God gives you discernment for you to use. Sometimes that means some we lose. Count your blessingsContinue reading “Whispers of Remembrance”

Dear Son,

Son, today I look at you and you’re almost a man. Yet I can recall all the times I held your tiny hand. So precious and small and partly me. I never knew I could love so deep. Your baby blues would look back at me. Subdued by the warmth and everything you need. NowContinue reading “Dear Son,”

Say Yes

There comes a moment when the heart realizes it is done surviving and ready to live. She says yes the way a window says yes to morning, without needing to understand the sun. She says yes without bracing, without bargaining, without asking pain to come along for proof. She says yes to love, not theContinue reading “Say Yes”

Homeschool Mama

ABC’S and 123’s Teaching young ones how to read. Next Geometry and Chemistry. Now on to ancient history. Back to letters and the sounds they speak. All the while a toddler is tugging at my knee. The dog needs to be fed and probably outside to pee. But right now I am chilling in ancientContinue reading “Homeschool Mama”
