This week the prompt took me back to a poem I wrote when my youngest son was somewhere between four and six. It’s been a long time ago. 😉 I wrote a lot of poetry back then as a means of journalling. I took this one out of mothballs and gave it a trim and an overhaul. The sketch is from the same time.

Counting on my fingers, to make sure I had the right number of syllables…I give you Haiku

Thank you, Sammi, for introducing me to a new word. When I learned it’s meaning, the muse took me to my ultimate happy spot. Those who know me well, can guess where I’m going with this. 😉
NUDIBRANCH
Some meditate to achieve absolute peace.
Controlled breathing.
Bio feedback.
For this radiolarian
Tranquility comes in liquid form
Buoying me up to watery heights
Singing an elysian song.
I am a Spanish Dancer,
A sea creature
Blissfully navigating
Waves of purple fan coral
Schools of phthalo-blue tangs
Sunlight beams through the crystalline surface.
Serenity is mine.

I can’t help myself. To me this is the ultimate therapy. My mental health time. 😉 No apologies for my recurring theme.
FREESTYLE
My happy spot
Solace and solitude
A place to connect with my inner mermaid child
Next best thing to love
A 25-foot concrete trench
Filled with chlorinated water
My liquid haven.
All things considered I’d rather be swimming.

Sort of a haiku with one extra syllable. I couldn’t find a way around it.

Once more I’m participating in Weekend Writing Prompt. For instructions on how to join the fun, click HERE. Thank you, Sammi, for something different to challenge and fire the imagination. Today’s mother’s reflection is brought to you by the word:
Do you believe in love at first sight?
I do.
I believed it then.
I believe it now.
When you curled your tiny fingers around mine
You furrowed an unfathomable trench in my heart
That has only deepened with time.
This was taken several winters ago when school was called on account of snow.
It’s all Dale’s fault. She’s been doing this challenge for a while now. I thought, “17 words, I can do this, right? Of course right.” If you’d like to try it, it’s led by Sammi Cox
Missionaries’ flames ignite to kill the Indian, but save the child.
