A Bunch Of Crazies‼️

She closes her eyes,

And sees it all.

A never ending menagerie,

That climbs and crawls.

Her mind produces an array

Of thoughts, visions and sounds.

So many that sometimes 

Her head just pounds!

Purple dinosaurs 

And pink dragons!

Singing roses

And flying wagons!

Speedy tortoises 

And dancing daisies!

Litter her imagination,

Like a bunch of crazies!

On and on it keeps on going,

Spinning her round and round.

So hard to control or stop it all,

Sound after sound after sound.

She would take a class,

If there actually was one,

On how to control her thoughts. 

So one begins when another’s done!

But perhaps the world

Would become too drab,

Without her creative part

That sees that bicycling crab!

Drab indeed, it would be that!

So her overactive imagination she will keep.

Even if it rarely slows down,

And it keeps her from sleep😴

{as I write this nonsense at 1:00am…}

“Hopefully one day I’ll get it right, or at least have fun, while about it I write!!”

Her Confident Heart.

She soars through her dreams,

Full of drama and pizzazz!

Ready to face anything more,

Than she already has!

Invincible in her heart,

She can do it all!

If a dragon blows her down,

She gets up from the fall! 

Her dreams are hers,

She calls the shots!

She can do anything at all,

Like fly and read thoughts!

Her confidence shows,

She wears it proudly!

They cheer her on,

As she sings quite loudly!

In her waking hours,

Her confidence wanes.

Her head drops down,

But she never complains. 

Though she wishes that 

The person she is while asleep,

Would show up in real life,

And be there for keeps.

She knows in her heart

That that person’s inside.

She’s just searching for the courage,

To show her on the outside!

She closes her eyes,

And slips into dreamland, far away.

Where she is at peace with herself,

Knowing it’ll all be okay.

Feeling pukey tonight,😪

Just a bit of a wreck!🤕

Complete with cold sweats,🤒

Just nauseous and blech!💩

But now my tummy’s not fine!😞

So off to bed I’m going,😴

For a long, good night’s rest!💤

Oh, Why Must They Grow Up So Fast??

Growing up before my eyes.

I see it happening,

And it’s beautiful,

Yet scary as hell!

I can’t stop it.

It’s natural, normal,

Healthy even…

But it breaks my heart!

As it simultaneously 

Makes me proud.

When did you learn that?

Where did you hear that?

How do you know about that?

“Everyone does Mom, gee” 

(What happened to Mommy???)

Gone is the little one

Who needed me there,

Every second of every moment.

The one who depended  

On me, Mommy, 

For everything imaginable!

Truly, for everything!

Oh, yes, of course he still needs me!

He’s still a little kiddo,

Just not a baby,

Nor a toddler,

Not even a preschooler!

When did you turn into

This little boy, 

That stands before me?

This little boy,

Who plays in the backyard, 

By yourself?!

This little boy,

Who kicks my butt at video games!

This little boy,

Who saves money to buy 

Beads at school, 

“For a good cause, Mom!”

Who doesn’t always say 

“Mommy” anymore!

Now, it’s just “Mom.” 

(Well, sometimes still “Mommy”

-it’s situational now!)

Then you must see something 

In my eyes, 

Because you take my hand

And say,

“Don’t worry Mommy!

Just cause I’m growing bigger, 

Doesn’t mean I don’t still love you!

You know you’ll always be my Mommy 

And my first favourite, right?”

Ahhh…there it is

He already knows 

What to say…

His first level of training

Is complete!

Too bad it feels like 

Ripping my heart out,

As we begin the next phase!

Oh, why must they 

Grow up so fast??

Life Is Short

Slowly moving forward,

With some hiccups on the way.

It’s not about the ending.

It’s the journey everyday. 

So live each moment fully,

Truly experience your life.

Be present everyday, 

Try to eliminate the strife.

Life is super short,

Don’t let it pass you by. 

Find joy in every moment,

It’s easy if you try!

Nightmares 

Falling through the levels

Aching at each one

Screaming at the Devils

Praying it was done 

Sweating through her dreams 

Believing every thing

Awakening it seems

But she finds she’s still sleeping 

Peeling her eyes loose

Forcing herself awake

Facing worse abuse

Waking was a mistake

A Good Birthday!

I’m tired, I’m sleepy

I’m totally wiped out

But I had a good day,

I can’t complain about!

My hubby made breakfast, 

With help from the kids!

I slept-in and relaxed,

With heavy eyelids.

I got a new sunhat, 

And a fancy new brush. 

Some cream for my feet,

That made them feel lush!  

Then I watched some more dance,

They did really well!

They all had fun,

And nobody fell!

Then my hubby barbecued,

It all tasted great!

We all played a game,

And now it is late.

So I’m off to my bed,

I’ll fall asleep fast!

Thanks for all the well wishes,

In my heart they will last!

Thankful We Found You 

For Miss Amanda at AAOD (Amanda’s Acadamey of Dance), thank you😘
It’s the last competition, 

The last dance weekend!

It’ll be go go go,

With four days to attend!

Soon they’ll be no more plies or jumps!

No more splits or lifts!

Say goodbye to the judges.

Oh how quickly time shifts. 

Didn’t she just start?

Feeling nervous and scared?

Yet super excited!!

We found people who cared!

We walked into the studio,

Not knowing a soul.

She was ready to dance. 

And having fun was our goal!

We felt welcomed and accepted, 

Right from the start!

She’s found new friends and role models,

Who dance from the heart!

She’s had so much fun,

And I wanted to thank you,

For a wonderful year, 

For each and every laugh

And every tear!

And I wanted to thank you,

For being kind to my girl. 

Seeing her smiling and happy

Makes me want to twirl!!

Changing studios

Was such a hard thing to do,

And we’re ever so greatful

That we found you!!

Motivation’s Showing‼️

Filled with energy!

Ready to burst!

Motivated to start!

No more need to curse. 

Was standing still,

Felt so stuck,

Couldn’t move forward,

Was out of luck😥

Ready to give in,

Throw in the towel!

Felt too convoluted, 

With me ready to howl!

Yet, after tonight,

I’m feeling better!

Filled with ideas,

Down to the letter!

I need a gameplan,

To get things straight! 

Like where to begin,

I just can’t wait!!

I’ll eat my brown stew,

Can’t miss anything,

Of course every ingredient, 

Not just my fave things!

Thanx for tonight Cim!

Very well worth going!

Feeling pumped!

Motivation’s showing!!
