81 days of gratitude on the wall...

it has been too long
have i been missed?

well
i have missed
you

in addition to a new
school year
twins in separate classes

(yeah!)

and in spite of
a lawyer who is
not concerned
about child support for
my kids

and a BOYfriend who considers
said kids to be a
pre-existing condition

his words were
previous financial responsibility

(not so yeah!)

there is a battalion
of fairy boats

aviators
indians
pirates

wild knights

elf kicks

mermen

and
four
more
days

sigh

until my
very first craft fair

this saturday
in bed stuy
brooklyn

life continues with the
barrage
of lemons

but
no lemonade as
mother hubbard's cupboard
is barren
of sugar

and yet
this vessel
creates

counts blessings
between the tears

dances
between the raindrops

and prepares

i cannot
express
the gratitude

please pray for a
sunny
profitable
glorious
day

and stop on over
if you can
