Today

are you proud ?

to be in charge.....

We must look for ways

to be an active force

in our own lives.

We must take charge

of our own destinies,

design a life

of substance

and truly begin

to live our dreams

in my soft cosy shirt .

makes me wonder

 Happy weekend

SO SO SO HAPPY

*

Yesterday

I bought a car !

After 10 years without one !

10 years doing everything

on my bike .

Going everywhere

on my bike.

Even in the rain

even when the wind was hugh ...

*

It's not a new car

the car is 10 years old

All the years

I was doing without

one

this one was on the road

maybe I passed it

I hope the car is good to me

Feeling how glad and happy I am

*

being a single mother

of FOUR

without a husband

and without alimony

I had to make choices

and I did

*

Now my children

are wonderful grown-ups

now I could buy a car again

*

I am so HAPPY

think about my new FREEDOM

and the easy-ness

*

Happy

*

measure out

*

CHILDHOOD

is

measured out

by

SOUNDS

and

SMELLS

and

SIGHTS

before

the dark hour

of

reason

grows

John Betjeman

*

Being a teacher

watching children

Being a mother

watching

 my own children

for

many

many

years

brought me

SO SO SO

much

*

and

now

the greatest

GIFT

to

live and see

all I have learned

through

the eyes of a grandmother

watching

my precious

EVA

*

wish you can all

see through the eyes

of the children
