Response to Apology Poem

Dear Anonoymous,

Thanks for the very pretty puke I had to clean up.

It made my fricken day when I turned around and threw up on my boss.
I got fired.

Apology Poem with Jenni, Jerry, Britta, Kat, Lauren

Dear Hot Topic Guy,
I'm so sorry my stomach was queezy.
It was churning and twisting.
I laid down on the bench,
hoping it would settle.
I tried to hold it down, I promise.
But I had to sit up you see.
I had to escape the store, I
could feel it rise up inside me.
and then...

it was too late.

Orange and green are odd colors, really.
Sort of that liquidy paste, churning out.
Oh! But I DiD feel better afterwards.
Thanks for your understanding.
-Anonymous.

Little Mommy

Sing-song voices whispering in your ears.
Tiny arms wrapping around, pulling you in close.
Love filling the air, warmth embracing. Life feels eternaal.

Their bright and wide smiles capturing you.
Face's proud as they show you the picture they made.
Little fingers gracing across the smooth, white and black keys.
Smiling unforgettably, feeling amazed as they play the simple tune.
Realizing You made as influence,
a difference,
an inspiration,
your rounded words,
simple care and compassion.
The intriguing ideas you had,
games you taught,
tunes you played.
Somehow, You became the role- model.

And they remind you of that.
Gazing up at your eyes, hugging your leg as you try to walk.
Fitting their small hand into yours.
Reminding you every day that they love you.
Forever.

Time

The past is the past.
The future is the future.
Why can’t we just live in the present?
Live in those fascinating moments we are in.
Not the ones before.
Not the ones to come.
Forget all the troubles behind.
Forget the ones ahead.
Live in the ones now.
Listen to the whispers around you.
Memorize his arms around you.
Sympathize with those in need.
Don’t let moments pass by too quickly.
Hold on to what is needed but let go of what is not.
Look forward to what will happen but don’t let it take over.
Don’t let it take over what is happening now.
Now as you lay that precious baby down to sleep.
Now as you hug and kiss him.
Now as you realize that every moment is beautiful because He gave you life.
Live in the present and don’t ever forget.
Don’t ever forget that life is magical.
