Long haired,
dark eyed
beauty she was.
The object of
love and desire.
Years of
grit and grind
With absolute
and total
confusion of mind.
So called female
Adult of the species.
So much and so full of
baby making machinery,
that to maintain
a single logical
coherent thought,
longer than
two minutes
at a stretch
without some
Maternal instinct
overriding all else,
was a physical
impossibility.
Creator of frustration
And mental castration,
That was the way it was,
But not now, no more.

I can understand in that I have met and known women I wish to have children with.

I wouldn't put it as you have.

Talent yes, inner self doesn't show through.

Hmmmmm, not sure how to take this

- but it is thought provoking. Would like to know a little more, I guess -

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind.

DavePage, Thank you Dave for the comments. Not so much about wanting to have children, more on having had, and the maternal instinct dominating life for all to the point of not being able to have what might be referred to as a normal relationship in thought or deed.

Susan, thank you for reading, perhaps the above will assist.
