Can you just add the Baa to my humbug Lets stay in bed and cuddle under the covers dreaming up new dreams Let the ghosts come bring us back to childhood to remind us what we really need They’d agree it’s to write and that all these bells and tinsels are unnecessary I’d say letsContinue reading “Baa Humbug”

Truffles
Truffles Golden box filled with a cryptic variety The folded paper to help me decipher which chocolate I just placed in my mouth Without that paper I poke and prod each truffle looking for the perfect one.

Miss Piggy
Since it’s Saturday I figured I would post a silly little poem I wrote with my daughter. We had fun working on it together. Miss Piggy She’s my secret treasure That no one can measure She likes lemonade Freshly homemade And hot baths with bubbles Take away her troubles She has a neighbor bumbleContinue reading “Miss Piggy”

Speaking of posting things that make our palms sweat and our hearts beat out of our chest. I figured I’d post a personal one. Race is something that is extremely hard for me to talk about. I have a post in drafts that’s still there about the complexities of growing up bi-racial. But I figuredContinue reading “Sweaty Palms”
When Feelings Collide with Words
She came And She went She Left.
