I am writing a poem
And he interrupts
I have to help with his dinner
Dear lord
I hope I don't lose this thought
I microwave his pitas
Cook his soup
I still got my thoughts
But they are starting to fade
Dad leave me alone
Let me write my poem
My thoughts are starting to fade
No you must finish helping me
Your poems aren't so important
You can write others
I still try to keep the thought
Do as my Dad says
I finally get finished
And my thoughts are gone
Oh darn

Cold hands means a warm heart

Typical parents.

What is life without poetry and adventure?
"Little sister" is just another way of saying "Guardian Angel"!

If you lost them, it looks like you got some others to replace them...
This is a cute true to life poem...
Thanks for the read, Julie...

(big hugggssssss) Oh Julie, again I am so sorry you are having difficulties getting along with your parents, they can indeed be so overprotective but hopefully they can learn to understand how important poetry is to you and can at least let you finish! (sigh) This is well-expressed, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Julie, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

I have thought about getting a small tape recorder and carrying it with me to record my thoughts when I'm not able to write them down. This might be a good idea for you to try...Paul
