Lillian (2)

Just a normal day off from work, trying to clean up and entertain Lillian as she is a  destructive force, so my efforts are not futile. *Pumpkin, our 7 month old kitten & ^Asbach, our 3 year old boxer.




Little Lilly,

how come you are so sweet

from your tangled hair 

down to your webbed feet.

Like a tornado you tear thru the house
leaving trails of destruction 
just like a tiny mouse.

Your imagination lets pink ponies 
run free and kitten* lets you rejoice

with exhilarated glee.

Barbies you dress up and adore

and dog^ chews them up 

and we have to go get some more. 

One of your favorites is that dog blue 

and you make pretty pictures

with scissors, paper and glue.

Dora is one of your best friends

delicioso and swiper no swiping!

we have to pretend.

Mud, of course, best self made

so you can drag it in the house

and make a pancake.

I adore and love that little girl
just never forget
the little girl I am raising

is a handful you bet!

Oh SNAP!

You are my....

source of luxurious delight

reminiscent of a sweet kiss

my growing desire as I embrace 

your velvety smoothness

My affection and fondness growing

I relish in your lusciousness

your amplitude is morally amiss

yet sinfully I relish in your opulence

as you melt and burst into my mouth

Am I able to go another minute

without you? 

My infatuation, adulation,

My one constant that is always

eager to please..... Chocolate

Joshua

Gloriously he wears his armor
Engineered like metallic sheathing
Desperate to not never
Ache, Bruise, Despair, Rupture
Again

Heroically he wears his armor
Shelled like an animal
Frantically to not ever
Grieve, Mourn, Weep, Wound
Again

Never to be reduced to
fragments or feel abject again.

Maddy

As I watch you...
Standing there with your tousled hair
You make me think of how
These (beings) create ruinous damage
Straining on your benevolence
Leaving you despondent

Lillian

February 15th 

Let me set the stage:
Lillian my almost 5 year old going on "I know everything better", found the stash of candy. It is 10:30 p.m.and she is bouncing off the walls. To keep my sanity I write poems. This is what I came up with for this situation!


Lillian
Happy girl-
 why don't you sleep?
Your mother-
 is tired and ready to weep!
Happy girl-
 why are you awake?
Your mother-
 is weary and ready to break!
Happy girl-
 Why don't you dream?
Your mother
 is exhausted and ready to scream!
Happy girl-
 why are you climbing a wall?
Your mother-
 is fatigued and ready to bawl!

Happy girl, tell your mother you are
ready to see, Princess Bubblegum in
dreamland, please do it for me!
