    Finally Friday, Or is it Friday again? Another week has gone My question is when? Time keeps moving faster When I want it to go slow But other times it’s like molasses When I want it to go Another day of work, Of family and friends Walk through the door And somehow, time suspends I…

    Another Thursday has rolled around, leaving me when thoughts a plenty, Many about the weather, It shows me its displeasure, donating hail and rain this week, with a side of sound and fury.

    Prayer for a tired spirit

    This week has felt long Weighed heavy on the heart So many lives lost Always tears me apart But work marches on Another problem to heal But what does one do When you’re at your limit to feel? All I can do And all that I know Is to hug my loved one’s closer And…

    Heartache and hope

    I watched my children more closely tonight. It had been a normal day, Maybe better than most. They were happy, and decently mannered. The fights were minor and short.

    Rude awakening

    Today I’m tired. I’m glad that Friday is here once more, and that I don’t technically have to wake up for anything tomorrow, Although knowing me, I still will. I have been dragging myself around for the last two days, not knowing why I’m so exhausted. Am I getting sick? Am I over stressed, over…

    Feline musings

    The summer sun hits my eyes Closing them, I smile A rumble fills my chest As my pet provides the lap upon which I perch Blinking, I survey my kingdom It will do, For now Irritating subjects surround me But they have their uses The small ones act so silly sometimes, As if they were…
