watching my children
hearing the squeak of the swings
brings back memories.


every Halloween
children found trick-or-treating
"who is who?" I ask.


face full of icing
trying to kiss her mommy
Grandma's Birthday Bash



watching my daughter
as she does her math homework
counting the fingers
add, subtract, multiply and
divide to solve the problems

spelling list is next
she reviews the words to find
what this group may have
in common with each other
studying hard for an A

Of course this one is all the cuter when you see the picture on your bio page. I really like the slide one, too. You have to send that one off to more places.

I liked these, especially the Haiku and the very visual style of the first poem. They are vivid microcosms of different stages in your life as a mother...

All the best,

Sara.
