Messy Boys
Jibber jabber, pitter patter; another one is screaming, now what's the matter? Little feet, stinky feet, how many rocks did you just eat? Sticky hands, runny nose; did you just pick your nose with your toes? Booger picking, booger eating; do we need to have another prayer meeting? Messy house, stained up clothes; with these three boys, anything goes. Terrible two's and attitude; where'd they...

Slow Down Momma
Slow down Momma, I know it's hard, but these are the times you'll miss by far. Slow down Momma, the days may seem long, but remember your children need you to be strong. One more car seat to go, one more "terrible two's", but you can enjoy these moments should you choose. We push for the next chapter sometimes just...

A Prince Forever
To the world, he may just be a man, Chasing dreams, with calloused hands. But to her, he's the little boy still, With scraped knees and a stubborn will. She watched him stumble, watched him grow, Held his fears she'd never show. In her arms, he found his start— A throne carved gently in her heart. His crown? Not gold, but strands of...

Premium Member Dearest Mom
How often, I remember when Mom's voice washed away...all my fears As duskfall traced our shadow-dance; We peek- a- booed with laughing eyes While fairy tales spoke of romance. Fine the hands swerving along winds, Sweet bedtime tunes lulled mellow nights Tender age spilling revelries, On my lap, tinsels wrapped moonlights. Where whirled, catching the dew Till evening swept like blue rainfall; And we rolled on...

Women
the women of my lifetime are women of a lifeline they teach me kindness from bright minds the ones who despite it all are still planting seeds in this ugly world turning fields of greed into fields of green and hate into lovely words and that's sisters, mothers girlfriends, lovers the ones who'll smother us in hugs when we're down in trenches plagued by what's above us the ones who...

To my mother She's the closest thing to God I know She's a giver of life, love She's the music, the maestro She brings the sun inside when it starts to rain She finds the warmth inside the cold Has a home if you need to stay She's the one who guided us Through all the forgotten years The times that we would stumble She...

Premium Member THE NOTEBOOK
I still see my mother sitting at the kitchen table copying out her favorite recipes from the Women’s Weekly magazine. With pen in hand, she’d carefully write the recipe, word for word in her notebook. There are hundreds that she collected over the decades. That notebook, with its dog-eared pages, crusty stains and side notes, is now in my hands. The thing is, I don’t cook— my other...

Premium Member Thinking Of You
Thinking of you in everything I do; gratefully, deep thoughts of you live on. You are so missed- yet, promise it is true- until my days expire and I am gone, live memories remain while I pursue exclaiming, “Mom, I love you still,” each dawn. ...

Always There
When skies were gray and nights were long, You held my hand, you made me strong. No need to ask, you always knew, The quiet ways I needed you. Through every stumble, fall, and fight, You stood beside me, full of light. A steady voice, a calming stare— No matter what, you’re always there. In whispered hopes and silent cries, You saw the truth...
