POEM #21 FOR POEM A DAY FOR 2020

Cruising through 2007 poems today, I got a kick out of this one.  

 I came across this poem today from  2006. It is not quite 20 years later since I wrote this poem but it remains true. My children are not covered in bathtub bubbles anymore but I am that mom who remembers when they were and still loves them! 

Feelings can be so messy!

No clever observations about this poem except to notice that I have had this experience numerous times 

This poem must have been written not long after Hannah was born. It made me say awwww! That's so sweet.  

 Okay, so sometimes the romantic ones are fun too.  

I notice that wave and water imagery often find their way into my poetry.  

Ever felt like this?

I discovered this poem in a journal from way back in 1999. Turns out that it might still be relevant as I try to shake off the sleepiness of winter.  

Sometimes there are bright clear moments in love. This poem was one such experience.  

 There is a element of humor in the fragility of this poem. If I didn't laugh, I would cry? 

It was a snow day today which made me think of this poem I wrote in December 2019.  

 Sometimes in life the blocked creative bursts forth and can be held back no longer! 

 This poem I wrote in memory of watching a man I was completely in love with fly away. Oh broken hearts are heavy.  

This poem arose organically from recent weeks as I have been active on social media. It is a playful poking of fun at myself as well as a reminder to chill out when it comes to too much technology. 

Note: The most effective format for posting single page poems seems to be this one - a photo rather than a file that uploads. So I will stick to this unless the poem is two pages or I find another better way. Thank you for being here. 

This was a savoured moment of soft romance just prior to having to face real life again. 

I notice that any relationship is rarely completely all good or all bad.
