Here are some poems I wrote while I was in the hospital.

Grieving For the Loss of my Thoughts

I am grieving.
Grieving the loss of my thoughts.
Every month
I think and wonder at my fate.
A little life,
An infant that could be, may be ….. mine.
I am wishful.
A sweet little life for me to take care of.
A baby boy or girl.
I love them all, the promise and the mystery.
Each month I think.
And each month that simply goes by….. nothing.
I feel a loss.
It’s not too bad, because I know it’s not practical.
Our lives would flip.
The control and order of our house….. gone.
We’d begin again.
The diapers, the mess, the crying, the money.
But, oh, the love.
The sweet baby smell, the laughs, the love.
And I think about it.
But now I can’t, forevermore…. It’s done.

One Day

One day can bend your life.
It changes forevermore.
A spark, some knowledge, some loss.
A need you’ll always long for.
And every day after that one,
You will remember the change.

  2. I have also enjoyed reading about the unit studies you are doing. I’m glad you’re enjoying learning with GB while you’re recovering. http://3awesomekids.blogspot.com/
