Accountability Is Tricky 

She did not like

Where she was at

She felt so stuck

And that was that

She would not see

That she could alter

Her thoughts and actions

She would not falter

She did not want

To take the blame

Accountability is tricky

And hard to tame

She turned away

From her truth

She blamed the times

Back in her youth

She finds it hard

To look at herself

She won’t accept 

Her hand in her health 

She doesn’t think

That she can grow

She’s given up

She’s saying no

She doesn’t know

It’s not too late

There’s always time

To change your fate

Another Day, Another (Kinda Crappy) Poem

Another day, another (kinda crappy) poem.📱

I told myself I’d try 👍🏼

To right a poem everyday,✍🏼

For a different way to get by.🕵🏼

Tonight it’s late.⏰

I’m super tired.😴

I’d rather talk normally,🤐

But I’d consider myself fired!😢

Yup! I’d fire myself,😱

Because I take my challenges seriously!🤔

I wanted to see if I could do it!🏆

I was acting really curiously. 😜

But if you know me well,👩🏼

I mean really well!👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

You’d know that I have 🤗

A stubborn streak, if truth tell.😕

So this isn’t great,👎🏼

Not even a bit,👅

But I met my expectations!👏🏼

It doesn’t mean I have to love it!💔

Not that all poems must rhyme,📝

Like this feeble one!🖊

But it’s better than nothing, 〰

And now it’s done!! (Yay!)🎈🎉🎊🎉🎊🎈

Goodnight🛌💤

Highs And Lows, Ups And Downs

When something bad happens,

How do you respond?

Do you calmly assess things,

Or wind up needing bail bonds?

In life there are always 

Highs and lows, Ups and downs.

Your reaction when things are low

Can set you apart from the clowns!

“Freaking out” or “losing it”commonly describe

Those who overreact  

When they hear bad news –

They act half-cracked!!

Take time to practice 

Thinking things through.

Get good at knowing

What you should do.

Then in moments of high stress,

When things seem to implode. 

You’ll be more prepared

To keep yourself in a steady mode. 

Then people will look to you,

With admiration and respect. 

Instead of stepping back,

Thinking, “what the heck?!”

The moral of the story

Is find a way to self-regulate!

So that during intense times,

You won’t be fitted for a jacket that’s “straight!!”

This was written feeling very nauseous, with a cramping up tummy and during cold sweats…that is why it is so… Well, I don’t know the word that I’m looking for, I just don’t particularly like today’s post. But I really need to lie down and sleep!

You Can Do It

Frightened of change?

Finding yourself stuck?

Unstable and unhappy,

With perhaps some bad luck?

Do new things fill you up,

With anxiety and fear.

Would you rather remain stagnant.  

For the reasons stated here:

It’s comfortable and safe.

It’s familiar and routine.

There are rarely any surprises,

“That’s just how it’s always been!”

Yes, change is hard,

But it won’t happen overnight. 

Small changes day to day,

Can begin to set things right!

Drink enough water everyday,

And track it for a week. 

What else do you want to change.

What other differences do you seek?

If you experience success,

Like with the water drinking,

You’ll see that you can do it,

And I hope it gets you thinking!

“What else can I do?”

What else could be changed?

Start looking at your diet,

What unhealthy foods could be exchanged?

Are there healthier options?

You don’t have to do it all!

A complete overhaul may not be needed, 

It’s possible to start small. 

Some do prefer to do it all at once,

But I think gradual works too. 

It depends on the person,

And what they want to do. 

Just know that YOU CAN DO IT! 

And it doesn’t have to be scarey!

You can even take it slowly,

There’s no need to be wary!

You Are Divine!

Why does it take an occasion,

Like a funeral or a wedding, 

To bring us together?

How does time slip away so quickly? 

“We’ll get together sooner next time,”we say,

But we don’t. 

Why does life need to be so busy and go go go?

Will we one day slow down and wonder,

“How did we get so old?”

When will we realize that the only time we have

Is NOW?

Will it be too late?

How do we start to change our perspective,

And our priorities,

To live a life with purpose?

Can we make the things that matter, 

Our families and friends,

Come first?

Do you live your life with intention,

Seeking meaningful moments,

That inspire?

Can you make small, deliberate, changes

To your day to day interactions,

To live your life by design?

Be willful and consistent with your words,

Your actions,

And your life!

You can be the change that you seek. 

You are powerful.

You are divine.

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.

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!
