am cheating here using two that i did yrs ago when i was a sole parent of my two sons


"Waiting"
I sit here in the doctor's waiting room
My feelings and fears continue to bloom
I hope soon they find out what's wrong inside him
At every dead end my hopes become dim
It scares me to think I can do nothing for my child
But to hold him and hug him and merely smile
I want him to be well so he can enjoy a normal day
Then he comes to me and says
Dad I had another seizure, please help me
Sometimes it hurts so much I just want to be free
Free from the pain and all the sorrow
Sometimes just wishing I don't have to deal with tomorrow
My child means so much to me so much to my heart
It is not fair that a young child has to have such a horrible start
To have to go through life feeling these pains
So he smiles says I'm OK and knows not his father is slowly going insane



" The silence of the children"
I love my children so true
You ask how many, well there are two
Both of them rowdy boys I love so dear
Already I wonder where are the years
~~~~~~~~
It scares me to think of them grown
Me with no one to care for at home sad and alone
I know I need not worry about what they will do
For I have taught them always be honorable and true
~~~~~~~~~~
Knowing with all the bad things they have done
I hold no remorse, regrets, absolutely none.
They will grow to be men of truth and grace
Knowing they are men is what puts a smile on my face
~~~~~~~~~~
So remember if you have children too,
Spend time with them now, or someday you will be blue
Wondering what you did and why you are alone
Only to hear the silence of children, because now they are gone(c)

birth

Birth

The hours in labor too many to count
the pain that's endured is quite evened out

You came to our world
on a cold winters' day
Holding you close
made the gray go away

Another came to the world
on a rainy fall day
Tiny and crinkled
seemed like a holiday

The third times the charm
a warm winter day
here you are now
almost walking away....


Next tag: Lazy Days

I think I've had creative block the last few days! lol

Lazy days pass,
Lying in the grass,
When there’s no one else around,
Relaxing here,
My mind is clear,
A peacefulness can be found…

New tag...ummm...Nightmares

nightmares and dreams
scarry enough to scream
your future is bleak
your attitude is weak
how can this illness be
I was so loving and free
now i dread what is next
soon i start to say oh heck
screw the illness I am strong
this part of the dream doesnt belong
I shall overcome this horrid dread
realizing the nightmare was only in my hedad



next tag grade school

GRADE SCHOOL
Reading writing and arithmetic,
Staying home when I played sick
My twin brother was the one who,
Was the creep, who ate the glue,
Even the chalk coated his tongue.
Together the trouble we found was fun.
We had our own twin talk too
The school didn’t know what to do
Until the third year you see
They decided to separate him and me
So never ever again were we
In the same classes him and me.

TAG... THE DIRT (OR THE GROUND )UNDER YOUR FEET

the soft dirt beneath my toes
barefoot on a country road
stepping lightly as i wander a path
wandering so far its time i sat
the fine dust of the worn trail
I drag my toes through it like a snail
slow and steady i write my name
the dirts so soft writings a game
so i leave my mark and look below
footprints in the dirt along the road


yikes lol


ok some one else enjoy dirt as a subject

Mud Pies-BMW-
She Has Made Mud Pies,
After The Sky Cries.
Ate A Spaghetti Dish,
Out Of Worms For The Fish.
Stored Holly Berries In Her Nose.
Changed Color By Painting Her Cloths.
That Is When She Was Two Or Three.
I Remember Those Times Clearly.
Now She Is Almost Seventeen.
The Only Thing That’s Still Seen,
Is How She loves TO Make Mud Pies,
Shortly After The Sky Cries.
