Sorry about missing a day... it was crazy busy from the moment my feet hit the floor until I collapsed in an exhausted heap at nearly midnight. I should have planned a post, but I had NO time at all to think up flowery words - so, today I will post two poems to make up for it.
Watching you walk down that aisle,
Made me proud
And made me smile.
In a few short years you've really grown
And from this nest, in another few years
You will have flown.
The man you'll be slowly forming
The baby-ness quickly dissolving.
Now, the next time I watch you walk down that aisle
On your arm another women will smile.
And I will sit and soak it up,
Knowing happiness is a never-ending cup.
An attempt to write a poem a day for a whole year... no guarantees on quality - just quantity!
A poem a day to keep brain rot away
Join me as I attempt to create a poem a day... whether awesome, bawdy, corny, dreadful, entertaining, fabulous, gross or hilariously hokey, I will try to string together everything from couplets to limericks - just for the fun of fiddling with words!
May 3rd, 2012
Today is quite a special day. I have actually reached the one year mark. I posted my first poem on May 3rd, 2011. I have had a great time doing this. It has basically become a habit and I don’t really want to stop. So, I am going to continue this thread because I have enjoyed it so much. It’s true that most of the poems were terrible. Some were good (or at least I thought so!) but mostly they were a reflection of something I either saw that day, thought of, felt or heard. In any case, I hope you have enjoyed the ride as much as I have. Here’s to letting the word out – come what may!
