A few of my favorite things… Blowing dandelion wishes Unknown ‘breakfast in bed’ dishes Doctored scraped knee dismays Single flower head bouquets Grass stained pirouette spins Shiny gapped tooth grins Outgrown purple satin bows Goofy mothers day shows Carefully hand crafted mud pies Red handed cookie jar alibis Van Gough finger paintings Successful potty training Bedtime bathroom stalls Middle of the night water calls Chasing closet monster blues With Pooh Bears night light hues Hurts healed with a simple kiss From mommy’s magical lips Happy hugs from tiny arms Payment for nursery rhyme charms Hershey chocolate baby fingers Memories that continue and linger Just a few of my favorite things…. Freedom of expression is the watch word... |

Goofy as hell? I think it's just wonderfully original and, well, wonderful!  'Writing sharpens life; life enriches writing' Sylvia Plath |

A few years ago, I would've read something like this and thought, "Eh...it's okay", and not given it a second thought, but now that I AM a mother, it takes on a whole new meaning.....I loved this very much--I can relate!!! Thanks! Bobbycat =^..^= ~~Blessed Be!~~ |

Breathe~ You take my breath away with this one. Silly ? Silly ? NOT ! Tender, loving, reach-out-and-touch-me thoughts to melt the heart of this mom. If it wasn't so late at night, I'd call every one of my children and HUG 'em with Mommy-Mush ! Shucks, think I will anyway ! I LOVE THIS ! ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
