Some days just don't seem to make the cut
One step forwards
two steps back
First we say: why me?
We kick a bit
and scream
but not convincingly
We're calm
It just is what it is
Do what we have to do
Totally snowed in
we hunker down with an old book
Isn't that what i dreamed of anyway?
in those days
full of stress
looking after you
Today
we are in it together
hold each other up
Mom, I love you
Ohhh, I love you too

This is beautiful, Jozien. So tender and loving... and you have captured that silly frustration we feel when we're snowed in. Why not just enjoy ourselves? Thank you for reminding me!
I love happy endings!!!
Greetings from far away, Jozien. Enjoy your spring break and please continue to spread beauty with your blog.
Louise! is it you?
I am so happy to see you here!
Jozi, beautiful work, my Northern girlfriend.
What a beautiful contribution Jozien!
I read the poem aloud to whoever was near me - and they all agreed with me!
