Musings by The Poet Loriet
Farewell 9 to 5
All of us snuggled together tight
in our king-sized waterbed
under grandma's homemade quilt,
the quilt that
I've needed to have near me
with each cold and fever,
the comfort quilt
with love sewn in the seams
binding us together.
We watch a movie side by side.
It's so good to see
Morgan laugh and relate,
a common thread...
her curls bounce
and her giggles
fill the air.
Collin gets jiggy
with the soundtrack
and shares Valentine candy.
We pass the popcorn
and we are one--
laughing, snuggling,
singing together...
It just doesn't get
any better than this.
Thank God for weekends
and family time!
