Wow, it feels so good to write, It's been too long a time. Now the words just seem to flow, The lines fall into rhyme. I have so many feelings I really must express. I have thoughts and many moods To you I will confess. Confusion tops my list. I feel I'm torn apart. I miss my children mostly, They're my entire heart. However, I am glad To spend some time alone. It has been several years, Since time has been my own. I have been accustomed To taking care of all. I worked as mom and wife. No detail was too small. Now I have this summer To do as I desire. Taking care of myself, Is all that I aspire. But I will be ready To see the summer end. My children will come home, To them I must attend. Spending time with Daddy, Their summer is a blast. But it will feel so good To have them home at last! Now maybe you can see The plight that I've been in. Torn between solitude, And two noisy children. There really is no doubt, About which I would choose. If asked to make a choice, My solitude would lose. My children are my life. I love them more each day. They bring me joy and love. They're great in every way!
Reason for writing:
After my divorce, my children spent their first time away from me, halfway across the country with their Dad.
