Good Evening! i haven't checked by in quite a while. Any new poems or prose?

Proudpaula, your words resound in my heart because i empathize so much with you. In some ways it has gotten easier but underneath is a part of me that yearns to have my babies back. It was when i was most sublimely content. i felt i was doing what God had put me on the earth for. And now, underneath it all, i feel lost and superfluous. But i soldier on through the muck and mire that is life because that is what is called for right at this moment, and because my wounds, though still fresh and painful, are healing. Sometimes an unassuming, ordinary sort of courage is displayed in the simple act of quietly pressing onward when one only wants to sit and weep until the never ending ache ceases.

Whoa! Where did that come from!! Wow! LOL
Blessings!

Hello All! I don't know if you can call this a Poem, but I just love it and wanted to share it.

Pain is Temporary, it may last a minute, a hour, a day
or even a year, but at some point that feeling will subside
and something will take it's place. If I quit, however that
feeling will last forever.

Hey Paula, do you scrapbook? Those short poems would be great on a scrapbook page.

I miss my son with all my heart, but the i know the U.S> Navy gave him a great start. I count the days till he can come home to stay but I also know he has to leave again to report back on a certain day. Brent is my Rock and he's gone his own way, but i always remember , soon he will be home to stay.

OK, but I have to say again, the authors name is on the bottom. I do not claim ownership of that, but it makes me grin from ear to ear.
