The struggle
When I decided I wanted to be a mother
It was almost hopeless, I can’t be bothered.
But I tried and I was feeling fried.
Negative again so it says.
Just this once, I asked.
I’ll be good, I promise I will.
By this time, I was getting dizzy.
I was feeling misty little lazy.
I began to dislike all that I enjoyed.
Hear! Hear!
Be merry, did you know?
It’s a boy!

The collage of innocence
A fragile little thing, bluish and red
In my arms, piercingly he cried.
A newbie mother, I was afraid.
Sleepless nights, I checked
In his cradle, I stood by.
Lullabies and endless kisses.
He began to crawl.
He began to say words
Only I would understand.
He was a smart child.
He was curious about many things.
He ate my indoor plants and said it was good.
I got to thinking,
He’ll probably be a scientist.
Or he’ll be a vegetarian.
Today at seventeen, he is still my baby.
Opinionated, he is still my child.
And I love him.

His words
You are my best friend mom.
I love you and I always will care for you
Just the way you cared for me.

Excellent... just beautiful... By the way you have been on my mind lately I put a picture of a squirrel, that i had photographed in my yard, onto my desktop..... I had to remove it because everytime i went to the desktop, my mind kept hearing....... I PUT A SPELL ON YOU... I had to remove it... Once you get that running through your head it's there all day...Smile

Thank you Katy.

LoL on that song sure brings back lots of memories. I hear it playing in one of the radio station here quite a bit. May be the radio announcer is under somebody's spell. hahahhaah.

There was this movie we recently watched called -- "The skeleton key", quite new. The story was about vodoo and hudoo practiced in the South by the Black Africans. Hmmm scary but again reminds me of that song.

Happy Thanks Giving to all folks out there in US of A. Save me a leg please.

Hey, CL!  How are you?

That is a very nice "suite" of poetry!  I can relate soooo easily.   Both my children have made comments to me, after they had reached adulthood, that made my heart swell and my mind to say ... It was all worth it!

Thanks RB and Nightrider.

I am doing okay RB.

btw, It's funny too that I didn't realize I was suppose to burp the kid after feeding. No wonder he was screaming for about a week until milk came out off his nose that I had to call 911. That's where I learned the burping part. Gee! that was a scary experience and I was home alone.
