A Poem for my Sons

April 1, 2009 · 2 comments

My husband wrote this poem last night. Just wanted to share it with you.

A Poem for my Sons

Little nose and little toes
Wonder where the day goes
First today then tomorrow
One year two years three years follow
Soon your arms and legs don’t fit
In the blanket that’s been knit
By loving hands for nine months long
Waiting for your birthday song
Your song of crying saying I am here
What joy and love that day I still hold dear
You scooted crawled walked then ran
And soon someday you’ll be a man
Little nose and little toes
Wonder where the day goes
First today then tomorrow
One year two years three years follow

Surely the fact that I am now waxing poetic is evidence of the severity of my cabin fever.

Oh, spring

Will you ever come?

I can not endure

One more day with out the sun.

 

Underneath the frozen snow

There is green grass, I know.

 

Another day trapped inside,

And I will surely loose my mind.

 

Children climbing walls

Give me the feeling

That I want to cling

To the ceiling.

 

That darn old ground hog

Saw his shadow.

If our paths should cross,

He’ll see the barrel

Of my husband’s riffle.
