Acrostic Clutter Poem by Jess

Careless

Leavings

Under

Tons of

“Tomorrows”

Ensuring

Regret

I hate clutter. Let me be clear. I have clutter. LOTS of clutter.

I am drawing a line in the sand. Oh, how a beach vacation sounds delightful right about now…cold feet…I digress.

You may remember I have been dreaming about closet cleaning. The Masked Mommy’s Closet PowWow is coming just in time for a pre-spring cleaning boost. Posts will be coming at the end of this week (possibly into the weekend) if all goes well.

Wish me luck or get down on your knees and pray…I’m gonna need it!

My Favorite…

Happy Birthday Peter!

You are finally as old and as wise as I. ;)

You are many things, but one thing you are not, is lame. In other words, you are super awesome.

Together Till the End

Though you annoy me, on certain crabby days

I count you as a blessing in many fantastic ways

As glimpses of time crease around your eyes

Your appeal increases, its really no surprise

Your loving manner shines in every phase

Bringing you joy and honor, really pays

I’ll stick with you until your last breath sighs

Cause no one else remembers my killer thighs

Love You!

Us circa 1999 (Yes, those were the killer thigh days...*sigh*)

Love is…

What is love to me?

Love Is…

A champion of virtue

Smitten with sacrifice

Ever-ready to defy hatred

BoldĀ  in giving

Defeated only by fear or laziness

Love is good

heart-with-holes

I am avoiding typing real paragraphs for my posts these days. I sorta like my photo essay/poem vibe. I hope you do too.

However, I am still conjuring up some thoughts on showing/expressing love to children.

Have a great weekend!

Love,

Jess

Just when my mind is ready to snap from being unable to paint anything outside, open the bedroom windows or get a grip on running my home,

I find a moment or two like these…

Winter sun rays

Brighter than summer days

Snow banks beam light

Warm sunspot, just right

Children bounce off the wall

Mama is ready for Spring to call

But for now, Winter’s here

Another storm rumbling near

Drifts a mile high

Childhood days blinking by
