Happy Mother’s Day
For all the hard shit we go through raising these monkeys.
For the lack of sleep, the bodily fluids and the laundry.
For the whole heart walking outside your body thing.
For the way your consciousness has to split into parts equaling your # of kids
For giving up Alpha Dog status in your own life
For all the sunshine their little smiles bring
And for truly understanding unconditional love
Happy Mother’s Day

Thanks slpmartin, I forgot to respond before. Motherhood can get rather gritty indeed!

Agnes, even your blog posts are poetry.

Thanks Lisa. There was a long time where I literally thought in poetry. But the kids have worn me down and for now I can only see things in very basic, non-metaphoric form, heheh.
