It’s National Poetry Month and I have been writing a poem each day. This one, I decided to share.

Ten Things of Thankful – April 2 2022
Happy April and Yes, Tax Season! Looks like this artist has their 2021 records ready to report! I can be thankful #1 and say that YAY!! My taxes are files and YAY, I didn’t owe any taxes. That’s a Two-Fer, So I will go straight to #3 of gratitudes and that is that is the cause to celebrate that spring is making itself known. While the showers are plentiful, those veggies will be even better once harvest time comes. #4 is that I have one more book launch in the books (see what I did there)…it was a wonderful time with lotsa love in the room. #5 Grateful for a partner who supports me in my creative ways. #6 thankful for my nieces who look out for each other. Just last night, my niece flew out to help her sister whose hubby is stationed away, so that Spring break is manageable for her younger sister. #7 thankful for daughter to venture out to walking without her walker. She has a knee injection which has helped her, as well. #8 Thankful that tax season only has 16 more days and I will be thankful when those 16 days are past (no apologies), #9 thankful for freedoms. #10 YOU This bunny must not have eaten his carrots!
How to Start a Fire
gather kindling-twigs n leaves, paper debris, light a match
find strong branches, trim them down, roast marshmallows, make s’mores
wrapped in grandma’s red plaid blanket, snuggle closer
notice sticky candy lips, take a chance and kiss them gently
flames lap at your feet, kisses sweet enough to eat
this is how a fire is made, starting with a twig to flame

Harmony’s Harp Lesson
Her days were long and her nights even longer as the shadows were here guides
Harmony lived for the days when she could spend time with her Aunt Cecile
Hurrying, but steadfast to prevent a stumbling fall, Harmony greeted her aunt
Her breath ran short and once regained Aunt Cecile called Harmony to her side
Here we go, dear one, let’s practice what you learned last week, deep breath and go
Harmony’s hands searched for the strings and played as if her vision were to succeed

Ten Things of Thankful – March 26 2022
Good Morning and Happy TTOT! Sorry I missed last week. I have been doing these on Saturdays and I was not on my computer last Saturday so I missed everything. And while I can do some things on my tablet and phone, I did not get that accomplished. What’s weird is that I have not missed a week since I started doing this. Maybe I needed a reboot. So, I will make this a gratitude #1 that I am grateful for reboots. #2 I am grateful for freedoms, #3 I am grateful for the spring like change, #4 I am grateful to have a roof over my head, something that it’s important to be mindful about, #5 choices, #6 answers to help daughter’s health which are showing pozzies, #7 taxes are signed sealed, delivered, #8 thankful for help with #7, #9 opportunities to challenge my skills,
#10 YOU!!
