and I wish on a star, that somewhere you are thinking of me too.
I'm sitting alone tonight. It hasn't even been a whole day yet and I already feel lonely. It sucks.
Maybe this weekend I will take some time to write. Once the girls go to bed, I'll have some quiet time to myself. That is if I have enough energy left!
I wrote something this morning....
Stillness
In the stillness of the morning
there is nothing yet there is everything
the distant murmurs of conversation
the swaying of the leaves in the trees
the chirp of birds in flight
the pitter pat of rain drops on the roof
a train whistle blows
and I hear it's heavy load on the tracks
I listen to my children in the next room
giggling and conspiring
plans of mischief in the air
all this in the stillness of my morning
before I rise
the minutes pass
I hear my bedside clock
ticking each one away
my sheets are warmth
my cocoon against the cold of the morning
and I lie in stillness
and embrace this peace.
